I too was blindsided just before my first check from Adsense of over $200. I also received the "substantial risk to our advertisers" bulk email from Adsense. Funny thing is I never expected this from Google. Greedy business practices. It wouldn’t be so bad if there weren’t so many people accusing them of the same thing (disabling accounts just before a first payment). If Google are so advanced and so sure of the alleged fraudulent activity why dont they just dock users for the "fraudulent" clicks? Since I did not click on any ads myself Google is obviously accusing me of something I didn’t do. I think all their boasting of being so advanced is CRAP. If Google were so advanced we wouldn’t be having this problem now would we? We’ve been BamGoogled!
