Well, I recently added adsense to my site over the past month and earned over $200 I log in today and it says my account has been disabled. Then I got an email saying my site was a threat to google AdWords. WTF They completely cheated me out of my money, they didn’t tell me this during the month, they wait till pay day. All my earnings were legit traffic too. I already submitted an appeal, any more suggestions?

What is your website so we can check the nature of your content?
Did you click on the ads? Did you tell your users to click on the ads? Are you using pay to click traffic or any of these trafficswarm types of traffic?
Invalid clicks is a “catch all” term that they use, but it does not always mean that the publisher cheated. It can mean anywhere from clicking on your own ads, labeling the ads, inciting visitors to support the site and click on the ads, etc.
It will not be up to Google to prove to you how they caught what they deemed as fraudulent clicks on your site. They will not show you the IPs of those who clicked. Instead, explain to them in a very professional manner that you never caused invalid clicks and send them your logfiles to help prove your case.
You have to remember that the first responsibility of Google is to satisfy their advertisers, where the money comes from; and not the publishers. They need to protect the interests of advertisers at all cost. As a result, any clicks perceived to be less than above-board are investigated oftentimes leading to the cancellation of the account of the advertiser.
There have been many cases of publishers whose account was initially disabled but reinstated from the program. Here are some threads from Webmasterworld.com of such cases:http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum89/59…http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum89/98…

I don’t know where you submitted the appeal, but you should do it here and answer all questions, just in case you did it somewhere else!
They usually have serious reasons when they disable an account, never saw any scam in 6 years.https://www.google.com/adsense/support/b…
