    I'm not sure, I can say that during last week I had suspicious clicks - 4 clicks from 3 impressions for 2 days running - I have emailed support with my concerns and I'm not banned yet. They would have to have a good anti fraud system in place.

    What everyone who has been wrongfully banned should do is let others know so that they do not also fall victim to WidgetBucks.

    Post your experiences on blogs such as http://widget-sucks.blogspot.com

    Word of mouth is a big advertising tool, if a company is getting negative feedback then it will cause doubt for Publishers currently using them and for those thinking of signing up.

    I think that was just a Plug and Promotion for his Blog. Can't profit directly from WB - but still using the Hype to work for him - so many people are doing this.

    thsadmin: I never even registered to Widgetbucks, because it was rather apparent this was going to happen, not that I blame Publishers, but its WidgetBucks fault for not being completely open in what its business model is nor what restrictions on being are.

    My account was also suspended because of "AD-only Page". How come it is an AD-only page when i put the ad only on pages where my contents are found? They really suck big time... My $85+$25 earnings and 9 referrals all lost.
    And they did not even replied to my email and support ticket.

    Some said they were warned before the suspension but I did not even received a warning email from them only the suspension notice. They really suck... :(

    Have you got an example page ? So we can see what NOT to do then, it would be better to show us so that we can avoid the same sh1t.

    WidgetBucks suspended my account without any notice 2 days ago. When I contacted them asking for a reason, they replied me that , my account is being suspended because of "fraudulent clicks". I am 100 % sure that I didnt try to generate any fraudulent clicks.
