I knoww someone with 12 computers clicks certain keywords on Overture. The person who told me about this asked me to not reveal the nature of who it is. Now I see why there were 35 $2.00 clicks in a half-hour on one term. Overture is not doing their job. Any suggestions?

I assume it's someone's competitor doing it. Alex, report it to Overture with whatever documentation can be appropriately revealed. There's really nothing more you can do.

alex:

Something similar happened to me. I emailed Overture, but got no satisfaction. I lowered all my bids - I only have one in the top three now (at least the last time I checked). Interestingly, the number of online intake forms I received has remained constant.
