I was a little surprised the other day when I went to one of my sites from another computer, clicked on one of my ads and up comes juicypromo.com
They're my ads that are doing this - as well as others. Maybe you thought I meant my site as a publisher and clicked on ads I was hosting - sorry. I opened a support ticket and was told

"All invalid clicks are sent to that page. Your clicks are still being registered with us, unless of course its invalid.

We don't specify what makes a click invalid, but in some instances, if an IP is blocked it might, or if the ads are being clicked consistently by the same IP, then they will count as invalid."
What strikes me as odd is:

1) My own clicks were some how invalid, even though it was the first time I clicked my own ad and
2) They're sending my traffic to their parked page. To get to 55k on Alexa they have to have a ton of traffic. They're obviously making money off of other people's ad buys. I want what they consider "invalid" clicks. I don't pay on a per click basis and even if I did they could simply only count the first click.

I've never heard of any other company doing this, ever. They can send them to a blank page or something - not their parked page where they try to make money off of visitors I'm supposed to be paying for.
