Oops I'm in Trouble

Looks like I have upset the folks at AdSense. In my efforts/ignorance I have been clicking on the adverts supplied by Google. Silly me. Apparently that is against the rules as it will generate income for me.

It has come to our attention that invalid clicks have been generated on the Google ads on your site(s). In the future,we may adjust your payment for any days during which invalid clicks occurred in order to properly credit advertisers for any invalid activity.

As a reminder, any method of generating invalid clicks is strictly prohibited. Invalid clicks include but are not limited to any clicks that are generated through the use of robots, automated clicking tools, manual clicks by a publisher on the publisher's own web pages, or a publisher encouraging others to click on his ads.

If you are clicking on the ads on your web pages for testing purposes,please note that clicking on your own ads or encouraging others to do so for any reason is prohibited, due to the potential for inflation of advertiser costs. Please be assured that there is no need to test the ads on your site, as our specialists review all of our ads to ensure that they meet Google's advertising standards.

If you would like to visit the destination of an ad to view its content or to add it to your filter list, you can use the AdSense Preview Tool, available here:

(I have removed the link)

The Google AdSense preview tool is an addition to the right-click menu for Windows Internet Explorer 6.x, allowing you to preview the ads that may show on any web page. Clicks and impressions from the preview tool are not applied to the advertiser's account. You can click through to the target site without worrying about invalid clicks being generated on your account, and without costing the advertiser for your test clicks.

If you have any questions, please feel free to reply to this email. We will be happy to help in any way we can.

Sincerely,

The Google Team

I was actually looking at the adverts. Yes, I admit I was looking at the adverts repeatedly especially as I was trying to change the layout of my Adsense block to show more adverts. Some of them I was looking at as I was interested in what they had to offer.

Be careful all you bloggers, the AdSense Police are watching!!!!

Ah well, knuckles well and truly wrapped!!
