Click Fraud

Did you know that there are actually low paid people in places like China, India, and elsewhere that get paid to sit and do nothing but click on advertising links that pay host sites based on the number of clickthroughs? Thats Low.

Yep, and they make a better living than the kids working in factories for the same pennies.

i don't see how it works, because if you click regularly from the same IP address, the ad companies will regard it as fraud and will not count those clicks. for example it won't make me any money if i would click my own ads on the top of the page all day, however if you click them it does count beacuse it shows variety of IP addresses. at least this is my perception.
