Earning through online ads

Q: If I force people to click on the ad and then download the file and ad network don't really allow such activities, will my earnings be halaal or haraam?

A: This way of earning is not recognized in Islam. Hence, the wealth acquired through this means is not halaal.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
