  | Google adwords phishing scam Just to warn everyone of a new scam doing the rounds. Got an email purporting to be from google adwords saying they stopped my ads and I needed to review them. The link is to a phishing site, its quite a lame attack and I saw it instantly but some may not notice. I spend good money on adwords each day so if scammers got into my adwords account they could damage business a lot I should think. |

   | Thanks for the warning. I have a client who's adsense account was hacked. They ran up about $17,000 in ads before they hit the credit limit. The client did not have to pay, but their account could not be used for a couple of weeks while Google did an investigation.
