I checked and my website does not show up at all for this weird keyword, but my logs tell me this came from a google organic search.

Whats going on here? Is this a bot? How can I stop this type of spam traffic in the future?

I had a situation close to this when someone tried to sabotage my AdSense account.

I got 400+ visits from MSN search results for a keyword that looked ok but one thing - it was like this "Keyword keyword keyword" - in all 400+ cases the first letter was capitalized. Surely this was unnatural, because all of a sudden over four hundred people doing one and the same search with the first word capitalized - stinky. By the way, all 400+ stinky visits came from different IPs.

That is why, in case on that day you got many clicks on AdSenses on that site, please don't hesitate to report to Google AdSense team on this page https://www.google.com/adsense/suppo...clicks_contact otherwise Google can think that you are using smart clicking software that hides behind different IPs.
