Forbes – Some critics have also accused Google of unfairly banning innocent publishers accused of click fraud. Does that happen?
Google – We do take it very seriously. We have a zero-tolerance policy when it comes to click fraud from publishers.
But when it comes to accounts that have been wrongly terminated or sabotaged, we’re always monitoring that too, and it generally comes to a very low number. We never hear back from the vast majority of publishers terminated. When publishers say they weren’t engaged in click fraud, we have an appeals process. Link. [tags]adsense[/tags]

My account was closed after a colleague clicked on my ads thinking that he was ‘helping’ me. Google wasn’t impressed with this as an explanation though. So it seems to me that it is a big risk to use AdSense as anything more than a minor, secondary income source.
