Adsense Conman : Being extorted your adsense income

December 10, 2009 · Posted in Technology 

Looks like there are Adsense Con artists around.

. A WebmasterWorld thread reports one AdSense publisher being conned online, making them share half their AdSense revenue? with them or else they would force them to be banned on Google AdSense.

The publisher said:

For the last several days I’ve been seeing 10x my normal revenue due to someone generating 1000′s of clicks on ads on my search channel. I notified the AdSense team immediately through the contact us (a pain in itself). Today I received an extortion letter indicating they’d stop if I pay them half the money. Otherwise they’d continue and get my account banned. What is the suggested way to contact and work with Google on this so that I don’t get my account banned?

What is happening is that this ‘pirate’ is sabotaging this publishers AdSense ads, by making it look like click fraud is rampant on his ads. Google may or may not ultimately ban the publisher due to the invalid clicks, which would leave the publisher out of business.

    Wish you Happy New Year 2011! I’m impressed, I have to say. Really seldom do I encounter a blog that’s both educational and entertaining, and let me tell you, you have hit the nail on the head. Your thoughts is outstanding; the matter is something that not a lot of people are speaking intelligently about. I am really happy that I stumbled across this in my search for something relating to it.
