I have just run a report on my Adwords Campaign and got this report:

Clicks-59
Invalid Clicks-14
Invalid Clicks Rate-19.18%

My question:
1-what can I do to stop/block this?
2-Google already detected do I get credited for these clicks or I have to make a request?

    Google will block those IP's and you'll get a refund, or it will be taken off the bill at the end of the month, invalid clicks are recorded via your invoice.

    I think the only way to escape invalid clicks is by turning off the content network so that your Ads will only be displayed on Googles search results.

    As Loz says though, you'll get refunded for those clicks.

      Invalid clicks don't just originate from content pages, they originate from the first page of Google too.

      Your competitors are more likely to do a search for thier most competive keywords and click on your campaign from there. And...I doubt Google with charge themselves with invalid clicks.

      It has been a diffecult situation all around and I'm not anymore sure how to handle even my own campaigns concerning invalid clicks than Google is.

        when I run a report it says:
        Clicks 63
        Invalid Clicks 14

        does the Clicks 63 includes 14 invalid clicks?or 63 is only valid clicks?
