    You have to remove your ads first, then contact google right away. If you have proof, even better. Did you use adlogger?

    As Fanaddict suggested install Adlogger, or else remove the Ads for sum time and then contact google and report them what exactly is happening with you, dont take risks ;)

    Adlogger is the way to go as others have mentioned. If you are fairly sure this is the case then remove the ads and contact Google.

    You know the old cliche better safe than sorry. :)

    It could be that your adense account is bit rusty in that things are updating all of a sudden rather than throughout the day thus giving the impression you might be getting click bombed.

    15 clicks is fine if it is from a good ip. I use adlogger, and I set mine to send me an email at 15 clicks, I get a about a dozen emails a day. (I do cut them off after 18 clicks, though)

    I started out thinking 5 was a good number, but my earning plummetted. Grant you I have been earning five figures a month for over a year with no protection.. so I adjusted it up until I stopped at the figures I quoted above, (every 2 hours) my CTR and earnings were as before, and I still feel a level of protection against click-bombers.

    Send a form to Google. They'll tell you what to do.

    Thank you, I am not that high :), so I guess I leave it lower for now and see what happens. I did have a drop after installing adlogger, but I only did that a few days ago, so I am not sure if it is that or not yet.

    I was going to change it a bit higher, but today I had some funny emails from adlogger, the same page having multible click reports from "Asia Pacific Network" in a short time with 2-3 from each IP for a total of about 10.
