    Well i just came across a NEWS that google is held in court for not returning money to advertisers whose ads were clicked illegally. The petition against google says that there is aroung 1200k$+ :eek: which they didnt returned!!! is that true or just someone pulled my leg???

    Regards
    Anurag

    Google is mad and evil but not insane, why wouldn't they pay ? they have good profit, and I think they won't risk with this...it could cause failing the company.. too big company to make such a thing..

    I believe it, sure it may be only cents that they owe back per AdWorde user?

    But cents become dollars, and dollars becomes lots of dollars.

    Ok, first, whenever someone goes to court, there is a public record of the filing. Second, Google is a publicly traded company. Anything that would pull $1.2M out of there pocket would get the attention of Google shareholders and the stock market overall.

    As for why Google would return the money, why wouldn't they? I have had money credited back to my AdWords account from click fraud. Why would they jeopardize their entire business model for what is a relatively small amount of money compared to their overall profitability? They wouldn't.

    With that said, there *might* be an issue with the amounts that were credited, or the time it took to issue the credits. In other words, I am not a loony Google fanatic, but I find it hard to believe they would do something so stupid.
