I wonder if the money is withheld because it'll be returned to the advertisers - or whether Google actually keeps it. I'd be surprised if Google charged the advertisers for traffic that it detected to be fraudulent.

I've had money refunded automatically due to Google detecting fraud later.

Google says it's returned to the advertisers.
