Invalid Activity Showing in new Payments History

    I just noticed today that the as of Sept 1 the new payments (transaction) history is showing debits for "invalid activity". This is great in that Google is being more transparent, but I'm curious if everyone else is seeing this invalid activity in their history, and how often.

    It's really annoying. I think it's happening for your invalid/ fraud click activities caught by Google. If any visitor click on Google ads on your website randomly you will be shown this kind of alert message. You can send a ticket directly to Google Adsense Team. They may help you freshly.
    Thanks

    So.. my question: are YOU seeing this activity in your history, and if so, how often?
    Why would I send a ticket to Google? What would you expect them to do?
    WTF does freshly mean?

    yes, others have the same stats reports on adsense. this is good, at least they don't ban people outright, instead they identify these clicks and deduct them from payments...:) which means you are OK in Gs eyes so long as its not going beyond the expected % that is normal, which is probably not more than 10%, and likely is 5%.

    I am noticing the same thing and yes in the payments (transaction) history also for invalid activity. I don't know for sure but I think Google has just started to report invalid clicks to the publishers. I know they've always had their "Finalized Earnings" vs. "Earnings" lingo where sometimes your finalized earnings would be a bit less (probably because of invalid clicks) but they never said why until now.
