Ive been reading alot about people getting their adsense account disabled with $50k+ unpaid, even google taking it out of their bank account for what they call invalid clicks.

Supposedly they frown upon social media traffic due to the track backs not being available.

I've heard they frown upon ads being displayed in areas that are not too relevant like in inbox's (if you have a membership site), terms of service pages, etc.

Also i have heard if you send traffic to a direct URL of yours via social media and you have adsense on that page... your trying to pull a fast one on them which i dont agree with.

1) Can they take the money back out of your bank account? If so, should you transfer funds once deposited into a different bank account?

2) Is it bad to put adsense on pages such as terms of service, in a users inbox, etc?

3) Should you not promote adsense on info articles you write if the traffic is coming from social media? (you write an article, place adsense on top and bottom, then promote on facebook for example)

Anyone with experience i would appreciate your response. If you have adsense on your homepage.. and drive traffic to your URL (abc dot com) technically they would be frowning upon it? Ive read some horror stories on forums and just looking for some insight. Thank you.

directly from google "promoting your site on third party websites not designed for site promotion, or where such promotion is unwanted such as classified or social networking sites"

I have a big fb fanpage (400.000+ fans) and I share articles of my site on the fan page everyday and get around 15.000-30.000 page views each day earning $30-$80 /day since more than 6 months and never had any problem "because of social media". my sites only get traffic from facebook. Horror stories are everywhere on the web, for adsense and many other companies. So you can focus on reading horror stories, or focus on making some moneeeeey :)
I have never had any problem because social media traffic only.
