    Hello XXXXX,

    It has come to our attention that invalid clicks or impressions have
    been generated on the Google ads on your site(s) through users of
    third-party programs paid or provided with other incentives to visit
    your site. Such programs may include, but are not limited to auto-surf,
    pay-to-surf, pay-to-read, or pay-to-click sites.

    As a reminder, any method of generating invalid clicks or impressions
    is strictly prohibited by our Terms & Conditions and program policies:

    https://www.google.com/adsense/localized-terms?hl=en_US
    https://www.google.com/adsense/policies?hl=en_US

    If we continue to detect invalid clicks or impressions from these
    services on your ads, we may disable your account to protect our
    advertisers.

    Sincerely,

    The Google AdSense Team


    I have no way of knowing what sites they are referring to or where the traffic is coming from. Any advice?

    I am being honest. I do not know what they are talking about or which site they are speaking of. I have several site that have adsense on them.

    If you read this thread, you know I am not cheating, thank you very much: If you have nothing nice to say or something that is not IGNORANT, then please don't say anthing at all:

    see this is your another post you said above and found lots of impressions, are you getting this kind of impressions on daily basis and your CTR is also very very low and I guess you used your site somewhere in Paid-to-surf sites and those programs wont give you much clicks, but takes lots of impressions like yours... so stop getting from those programs and check your stats as well, what went wrong!!

    I have emailed them and I am awaiting a response. This email was sent to me 1-3-2007. I just checked that email and saw it. Does that mean that everything should be ok now?

    I had the same problem last month... I followed all the rules and then when they said i was generating invalid clicks I asked which sites in the appeal. I also offered logs, web stats anything I could offer.

    They sent me a generic response saying account closed. I replied and tried to offer everything and asked if there is anything I can do to help further investigate this problem. No response

    Contact good with your version. Track your stats regularly and inform google whenever you have any doubt.
