I think somebody try to get me banned in AdMob - in geo stat clicks from "unknown" country has CTR 80%-90% (other countries < 3%).
Are there ways to block show ads if user form "unknown" country?

A general rule of thumb is to always put your users first - make sure your ads don't draw unnatural attention, mislead users, encourage clicks, or appear in places that may cause invalid clicks. If we find a large amount of invalid activity in your app(s), you may be at risk for account disablement.
Yes you can still use AdMob ads in your VPN application.
The problem with those clicks from an unknown country is the high CTR%, I have a 100% CTR for one of my apps today, I mean, 100 impressions 100 clicks... Really? Can't you be a little less obvious whoever is doing that! It's NOT being paranoid, it's somebody playing dirty, plain and simple. I have had this behavior with my app since around a month ago so it's not something casual.
What happens after you get that amount of unusual clicks for many days is that your ecpm goes down and so does your revenue, it's like if there is an algorithm that detects fraudulent behavior and starts to send the less profitable ads to those apps... Since this started my revenue has been cut to less than half, that's no coincidence.
I sent admob support an e-mail but I'm doubtful they will respond.

I suspect you are being paranoid.
"Unknown country" is not uncommon. If the number of clicks from an unknown country is relatively few I wouldn't worry about it.
