    I found a bit of click fraud on Boing Boing that amuses me;

    Put the search words “Enron scandal” or “Ken Lay,” or even this Enron reporter’s name, “Mary Flood,” into any of the above search engines and one of the first things you will see is www.kenlayinfo.com. If you hit on Lay’s Web site from there, then Lay pays between roughly 5 cents and 12 cents.

    Update: Clicking this link will bring you to Ken Lay’s page while costing him one click’s worth of traffic.

    Click click click…

    5 cents
