Get-paid-After-Being-Banned-By-Adsense

Recently, I have seen a forum thread who discuss about a Google AdSense publisher who was banned, received a payment from Google. You can read the news on Digital Point Forum as this thread has the first documented case.

According to the thread, here is the timeline:
- On the 7th of the month, Google banned his AdSense account.
- On the 28th, Google sent him a payment via electronic transfer.

Generally, Google would pay AdSense publishers for valid traffic. So, there is no reason why Google shouldn’t pay the publisher, if his account was banned for other reasons or even if some of the traffic was valid. However, Google has the right not to pay publishers who violate their terms of service. What do you think about it? A lucky publisher? Some members in the forums believe so.
