Sushila S Iyengar,
You mentioned that you earned $85 from Google Adsense a decade ago and you are yet to receive the payment. Can you specify when you last received an email from Adsense about the procedure to receive the payment and which account you are supposed to close as per their intimation? The account closure part is not very clear.
If the intimation from Adsense is recent you can respond to that mail stating you have not received the payment and may ask them for any timeline or exact procedure to receive the payment. If you can provide us with a screenshot of the message masking the personal details then it may help us to understand it in a better way. Henceforth, please do not share your contact number, which I have deleted from this post, or any personal details in any post unless asked for some specific purpose by the Admin. It is advised not to share such things on an open platform to prevent misuse.
Please share more details with clarity about the issue so that it can be addressed.
Sankalan
