Adsense Finalized earnings ALOT lower than Estimated Earnings?

Hello All!

I have got quite a big problem with AdSense which I have not really had before.

In April my estimated earnings were around £2000, but I was only paid around £1500. During April... £3.50 was taken off due to Invalid Traffic - AdSense for Content. So what has happened to my other £500?

This month is ALOT worse!
During May my estimated earnings were around £15,000, but my finalized earnings came through today, and the figure was around £6000, so they have basically taken £10,000 away from me? How does that work?

The money is being made from a very high traffic blog of mine, most of the traffic is from Google, Twitter, Facebook and youtube so its a legitimate site, and it has not had problems in the past.

Please can someone help me?

    Uff this is quite a cut! I have recieved a maximum cut of 1-2% from the final summ. But first things first...if you had 2000 pounds of revenue in april and 15 000 in May from the same account and with the same sites, its gonna ring so many alarm bells it hurts.

    If the traffic is recieved from various sources (social, google, direct etc.) then i see no problem. If its payed traffic or any other suspicious traffic than it would be a concern.

    Also note that if your CTR is really high 15%+ then you will be put under the magnified glass as well.

    I would however send an email asking if they could clarify, especially if you know you are 100% in the right and didnt use any scammy tactics.

    My 2 cents...
