  • Question about receiving money from Adsense

Hi guys,

I've been using adsense for the last few months on some of my websites, I bypassed the threshold ($10) several months ago, and bypassed the $100 earnings on February.

The problem is, I don't have "Western Union" in my payment option, but I'm supposed to have it since I'm from Lebanon and the address is set to Lebanon, my account type is individual and I hit the threshold long time ago. I thought my account will be upgraded initially and the Western Union option will be added, but it's been almost a year and I still don't have that payment option.

I never received a PIN code or was notified that one was sent. Also, it's been 2 months since the cheque of the first payment was sent and I haven't received anything yet.

Has anyone from Lebanon faced such a problem where you don't have the Western Union payment option in your adsense account? And how long did the cheque take to arrive?
Hey,

I tried the cheque - i got the pin but the cheque itself never arrived - after some really really long time - they re-added the value back to my adsense account.

As for WU - I always had it, so not sure why you don't and i always successfully use it (and always get a funny look from the cashier when they ask or see it is from google ;p)
I asked this question and answered it

it should be included in the wiki, if there's any, glad it helped :)

I answered (or solved) many of my questions, but i have to admit, when lebgeeks members decided to answer a question of mine, most of the times they gave a perfect answer.
Well see, my problem is, I don't have the Western Union option in the first place, and I don't have the PIN option as well, they don't exist in the account.

My address was accepted and is labeled as verified I guess because I don't have the "Verify" button next to it, I used 1100 as postal code long time ago




And the annoying thing is, Google forums don't have official Google support, and there's no way to contact the support... ughh

As you see here, I was maintaining the blog during August and July and had around 30K views each days.

You can easily guess that those viewers aren't real viewers. I have an exploit to do that.
Will I get money from adsense if I start using it and restart doing those views?
Will they notice that it's an exploit?
Will adsense work if the viewers cannot execute js?
As far as i know you will be picked up quickly by google and all the money you had on your account will be taken and you will be banned.
@paladin apparently google has changed the payment methods, here

@venam infinityads.com and directcpv.com i don't know if they are legit though

And if you are banned, you won't be able to open another account. You will be banned again and again.

So follow the TOS, and don't do something stupid. Advertisers are paying money to get real conversions.
