group Ad clicking

    I know its probably not legal under google TOS but. Has there ever been anything like a group ad clicking scheme? What i mean is. A group of people with adsence sites, take turns clicking each others ads. Or just like people start a thread for stumbles, could we start one for clicks. Kind of like a you click mine ill click yours type of thing.

    Has anyone ever heard of this is it possible? Would google be able to catch on to it?

    Just an idea that crossed my mind.

    Instead of coming up with ways to create fradulent clicks, just remember first: Google knows all.

    They'll even know if you clicked an ad with your middle finger instead of your index finger.

    You idea is very very STUPID. You should get banned from DP and google. Maybe I will send email google with your "pub-8988603064486194"

    I know google has this all knowing and all seeing reputation, but are they that good? If i started a thread offering to click your ads if you click mine, how could they find out, unless it was reported?

    Instead of wasting time thinking of these schemes, you'd be much better off thinking of white-hat methods. :)

    They know all. If you want to test that, go ahead. nobody is going to stop you. it'll only cost you your adsense account. :D

    Of coarse it's possible, but extremely hard. but google will eventually catch you and rightly so. Your screwing advertisers out of money, so If you go down this route, I hope google finds you

    Exactly. And may I add that many of the members here are adsense advertisers?
    Using your mfa and scraper sites are bad enough. This scheme is absolutely horrible.

    OK, i give up......are you talking about the fact that i said goggle had an all knowing reputation?

    fear not, i have not implemented this horrible plan. With everyone out trying to get Pr's they dont deserve by selling links (against google TOS) , i figured screwing google maybe the "hip" thing to do.

    Honestly though, it was just an idea, i have no plan to attempt it.

    It would have being stupid of you to even consider doing that, google will catch up with you eventually, just check out some posts here where people have their accounts banned for invalid clicks, and then watch as they try to act all inoccent

    Thats why its stupid to consider it, its impossible to outsmart Google, they will catch up with you eventually. Anyone thinking they can outsmart Google must be pretty stupid to try.
