    Lol agreed. This is hilarious.

    I can see the headlines now .. "Google, billion dollar search engine leader, outsmarted by genius who figured out how to click his own ads"

    If you only made $15 for an hour that really was a big waste of time. The risk involved isn't even worth $15. If it's a brand new account you might find they aren't as lenient as with an old account. At least you told them to cancel out the clicks. You probably should have told them you were experimenting with your site and accidentally clicked on the ads as well as your site developers.

    Now you people are who make AdSense unforgiving for others who get banned and are innocent.

    That is too true, I may make only $60-70 a month but I am so proud that it was all organic traffic and that only people that click are actually looking for those products.

    Dunno why people are happy getting into these kind of activities one should understand that once you get a click and money someone has paid for it. Now if that click was a fraud then we are ourselves killing one income potential in long long run.

    I think your regret was just a sarcasm.

    Of course you'll get caught.
    Do you not think Google will be suspicious when they see your clicks only come at certain times of the day and in a group?

    I say let him get banned....clearly you knew it was wrong, and didn't mean to just click a couple times.... look at your original post:

    "I've deleted all the cookies and changed my IP again and again b4 clicking on my own ads. The result i made $15 in one hour.. I know it's against google but what do you think guy?? Will I get caught?"

    idddddiiiiooootttttttttt

    All your actions will lead to your adsense account getting banned, not to mention crimanal chanrges being filed by google against you.

    How can you do this? Step back and observe your actions and see what will be the output of those actions.

    Hope you understand timely.

    Wow, this is truly hilarious. Why would you risk your account for pocket change. And yeah a 100% CTR is definetely going to turn a few heads at google.
