    If this is true, then widgetbucks has better way to detect click fraud, because adsense works fine for years on the same websites...

    Anyway, it seems like Widgetbucks is indeed SCAM.

    I don't even know how much I had in the account, somewhere between $300 and $500 but what I will miss the most will be the 30 referrals.

    This was inevitable, because they were paying like 30 cents for a click? for amazon products? where they get max 7% and the conversion? 1 out of 100 clicks?

    I think their income is at least 2 times lesser than the amount they owe to the advertisers, so they decided to start suspending.

    How do you know that the clicks are not on purpose by say your competitor?

    I doubt, the sites where I used their codes are pretty wide, they don't have direct competitors.
