Did Google Just Ban Me?

- Start date
no, and hadn't in months and in fact in my case w/ google had never ran any real volume to a flog, all review.
thats right guys, we got ass hammered by the "Big G" again
Banned again, as of July 1.
This time banned "for google money program" and im sure the AG is up there asses like an ass doctor on Mexican coke.
We have some accounts, client accounts, etc.
Our ad spend has been around (seriously sad) 2k - 3k a day.
Rule #1 Google don't give a fuck about you or how great of a customer you are. It wouldnt surprise me if they ban your ass for having a yahoo feed banner with a "google money" offer now.
Why you ask? Why don't they give a fuck?
Cuz they can replace you with every other loose wallet out there looking for a click.
I call it the "vegas model," always a fish to hit the tables, no need for pro's.
You feel me?
I suggest you you fly to northern California, hang out at starbucks or something near the googleplex. When you see any fat chick with a google name badge, light up like a Christmas tree and act like its love at first sight.
Cuz your only getting your account back if you nail fat chicks at google, everyone knows that.
Small price to pay - sometimes you gotta just slay the dragon, know what im sayin'?
or there is always goin back to the 9-5.

I always used to wonder why this was.. a business that openly did not give a shit about its customers to the point of being ridiculous. Then I did some research and it turns out google makes $61,000,000.00 per day from adwords. So yeah, they couldn't care any less about some guy paying them 10-15K a day for some bizzop ads.
sad but true
Setting up a new adwords account:
1. Buy a basic Windows dedicated server from volumedrive for $55 per month. You will use this from now on to manage your PPC campaigns by using remote desktop or whatever VNC/remote administration platform you want to use.
2. Never, EVER log into your banned account for gmail, youtube, blogspot etc from the dedicated server, and never login to your new adwords account (or gmail, youtube, blogspot, etc) from your current computer.
3. Call up your credit card company, tell them somebody broke into your home and stole your wallet, you left it on the bus, you got mugged and raped or whatever excuse you need so they can give you a new number.
4. Signup with your new credit card at adwords (through your dedicated server) and use a different name, street name, and if you're paranoid a new city. Only the street number and zip code need to match. For example, your banned account used the info of:
Mike Smith
1504 Palm St.
New York, NY 10000
In your New account use:
John Anderson
1504 Maple Rd.
San Diego, CA 10000
5. Congrats, you finished.
Of course you can always clear your cookies (flash cookies too) and switch your ip but then you won't be able to log into your old account without getting your new account banned the next day (unless you always clear cookies and switch ip addresses out) but that can be a pain in the ass. I'd rather just pay the $55 for a cheap dedicated windows server.

if you're at AdTech NYC or ASW in Jan drinks are on me for this post. Thank you, the first time someone's actually cleared up the little details, sincerely appreciate it.
:drinkup:
have u tried it yrself?
lets just say i ran my campaign in my buddy's house using his credit card and they managed to track me down and ban me.
Yes I've been doing this for about a year, I didn't have any issues until a few weeks ago when I got slapped on everything (acai) so I repeated the process and I'm good to go.
sorry to burst your bubble but this doesn't work anymore - i tried it a few weeks ago and i got burned again. name/postcode/first 8/12 digits of cc = reban.
you need a new zipcode and house address.
in case anyone doesn't get the above you don't really move house you just say you have. its perfectly legit (well sort of) in the cc companies eyes and happens all the time.get new card with new address by phoning cc company and giving new billing address (just moved house) while requesting to keep old address as correspondence addressthen next day phone them again and say i lost my card. new card with new number and billing address gets sent to correspondence address.
seriously i burned about 20+ adwords accounts looking for holes last month. this works and i'm only posting it because unless google feels it can ban all the "john smiths" in the world it will work forever.
and i might add i've logged in from the same computers (all 5 of them), same router, using same credit card (with new number) and same offshore bank account. this means google right now cannot track mac addresses, router mac addresses, any kind of hardwear signature and they also cannot obtain any extra bank account details. for all 5 of my new accounts in various names addresses i was manually billing reviewed and got through them all.
wait wait...Google doesn't want anyone promoting a re-bill that pisses off customers with there exact name in the title? wierd
i'm pretty fucked cause all my mail is in gmail. a lot of personal contacts as well. you think if i'll auto-forward it to a new gmail account it will be safe enough to get my e-mails there or should i auto-forward it to a pop3 on a domain? gmail is just so much better than the desktop competition...
Are you saying that they are identifying duplicate accounts on the basis of street number + zipcode combo?
That is extremely dangerous for them. Lots of false positives especially in densely populated areas.
Otherwise, I think Ayzo's method should work.
