Not only is this flat out lazy, it's also straight up, fucking stupid.
Here's my best take on it:
1. You made a bunch of 1-page sites which have less content on them than the amount of total content google is comfortable with per site. Also, it sounds like you made sites WITHOUT a T&C page... Clearly against adsense terms. Either way, that's what did you in.
2. Your authority site spiked your whole adsense account past $100 one day and that's what it took for a manual check to spot #1 in your account.
</game>
If I were you I'd CORRECT the problem with #1 and after that is done, it should be cool to throw the other accounts' code on those sites again.
In the meantime, make a new 2nd account, and the main criteria for it is to have it pay to a different bank account than the ones you've already used.

That IS the best way, but I assure you I'm not the only one who is doing this without a business account although I do plan on setting one up on my next trip to the U.S. and then everything will be switched over to that account. I'd just feel more comfortable with it that way.The best way is to open a company and open an account in that name. Trust me. Why wouldn't google be able to match your ssn..? There have been several cases where account have been banned for using the same address, same IP etc etc... Don't take one good example of someone whose account was spared.
Good luck
Your...point??
Good; call
How hard is it to go to Google Adsense Privacy Policy Generator - Create a Privacy Policy Adsense and paste to your site
I guess it's not likely in that case... Although the spike 4-5 months ago would likely Keep your account on their radar more... Can't be sure either way.My income spiked 4-5 months ago (when google+ was introduced).
I added a few new sites just 2-3 weeks ago and had them ranked quickly and made a 50% increase on revenue. Would it have caused a manual review?
