Google Adsense Clickers?????????

Discussion in 'AdSense' started by gregdavidson, Nov 18, 2007.

    I recently read this ad in the "employment" section of the local newspaper by a company looking for Google Adsense Clickers. They didn't give a lot of details about it other than a phone number to call. Does Google have any rules against this sort of thing?

    I won't, Google is big enough to take care of themselves.

    Yes, its called click fraud where they cheat honest advertisers of their money to inflate their income. Luckily, Google is doing a great job at fighting click fraud and they are winning the battle against these cheats.

    It is a fraud between Google and its adsense publisher, not a criminal case. The publisher deserve to be terminated but that does not mean we need to expend efforts to help Google.

    Why? The phone call could take 1 minute and then 1 minute to submit. Thats 2 minutes.

    It also doesn't only help Google, it also helps advertisers by stopping the fear of fraud clicks, so they increase CPC and it helps publishers because they get higher CPC.

    Post a copy of the ad here (scan or post info).

    Google can't know everything that happens around the world, and it is up to us to help keep the program clean.

    Peace,

    AdSense is a biggest money maker for many of us. If Google gets angry with those fraudsters, then can make life of the legit publishers more difficult as well. Look at widgetbucks example - they no longer accept international traffic and as a result a lot of ppl lost their incomes.
