    @asktolik Thanks man for sharing your story and i hope you will sort it out, I'm skeptical to those services despite their higher payout.

    I think making a good relation with Google admob is enough for me, although you always need to check their policies and guidelines to be in the safe zone.

    So what exactly did happen here? Chartboost thinks you did fraudulent installs and clicks on the ads?

    Hi guys, thanks for your replies.
    I hope to solve the misunderstanding too, as I really was not making anything "out of their service terms"
    @Christoph in resume: they think I was making some fraud stuff because I was offering to teach people how to filter in Chartboost to increase their eCPM... I was marked as spammer, and then Applovin followed Chartboost. I didn't know that offering knowledge can be considered FRAUD.

    Damn, so sad to see Chartboost act this way. They are really hurting the devs that got them to way they are today. Its a shame.

    I just watched the video you did for chartboost ecpm increase. Looks like You should not have mentioned the company name in your video.
    Hmmm... I just watched the video you did for chartboost ecpm increase. Looks like mentioning Chartboost in that video may have caused this issue.

    At first I thought Google Play Store and Admob where the only once banning accounts without notice but now hearing these coys too do that has brought fear to small indie coys.

    For the past 2 months, I have been working out alternative source of income and not depend on mobile game revenue alone.

    The best we can do is PRAY if you can PRAY...
