Digged: Get ANY adsense account banned - Where's the new trick?

Just yesterday I came across a digg entry for a post about getting any Adsense account banned… and it got 333 diggs…

WOW... I thougth that must contain interesting news….

The essensence of the post:

  • steal the publisher-ID and put it on crap sites

  • click on the “competitor” ads

hmmm … not really astonishing news – altough that post is well written, I’m surprised how many people find these trivial infos worthwile a digg.

The first problem, stolen Publisher-ID on crap sites, happened to me already more than a year ago when spam scraper bots crawled the sites that I had Adsense on. Soon I received a mail about an adsense ban about “invalid clicks” ... and that was it.

I went thru the appeal process I think 2 or 3 times but obviously that doesn’t help in this case. There is no proof availalbe that the spam scraper bots are really owned by some hackers in China, Korea or other states without western-law standards…
