Default Remember "Click Club"?

I was hearing somewhere thatthere was some adsense underground.

Where there around 100 people or so, where they would all have 50 sites, and each day they woud go there and click on 2 or 3 links, and on another 50 sites they would go and just cruz around.

Most of them would have high paying clicks ie credit,cancer etc. Is this a mere Internet - urban legend.

That's an interesting concept. I'm sure plenty of that is going around. I wouldn't risk my site like that though.

Yeah if your getting alot of traffic and making some decent "honest" change from "G" why bother with such a fraudulent means for generating revenue.

There are always going to be sites that Google can keep from getting click bombed by "others".
Especially if the site is new and there really isn't any traffic going to it.

It could be interesting and yet a very big fraud scam to the advertisers.

It still happens all the time, and they also help shut down competitors sites by excessively clicking the ads and causing Google to suspect click fraud on the innocent party. Google is so quick to ban the unsuspecting party they don't know what hit them.
