Default Fraudulent Click claims from google

I have heard of a number of people getting fraudulent click claims from Google for no other reason (they claim) as they were making substantial money thru adsense. Has anyone else heard of this or do you think they are just covering up what really are fraudulent clicks.

There are 'fraudulent clicks' and there are fraudulent clicks. Sometimes you just have to stick to them even if you don't know how the system really works..

yeah i've heard of it but usually its for a good reason, just go check the IPs that visit your site and see which one logs on a lot, that could be where the clicks are all coming from.

The thing I dont get is that i have seen people that have ad logger get banned saying they have invalid clicks on there site which I cant really believe is possible. Am i the only one that has heard of this situation?

I believe that some may be accidental, but most are the users own fault. Make sure you read the adsense TOS very good, as long as you follow it you shouldn't have any troubles with them.

Google never discloses the real details about the fraudalent clicks it gets from the people else it will loose out the adwords advertisers.

Adloggers are not 100% perfect to avoid fradulent clicks.
Just stick to their basics and you will be perfectly alright

try not to give your website address to over zelous relatives of your and you`d be perfectly fine.

I know I have accidently clicked on ads before that I didn't mean to and clicked the back button right away. I'm assuming if that happens, it counts those as fraudulent, right?

It's never happened to me personally but I see it all the time. Google records IPs though and if you have AdLogger there should be no problem.
