    By all means report to Google. Guy deserves to have his Adsense pulled purmanently. How did he get into your site to change id?

    you should report this to google, this guy should be banned, I have seen this kind practices by many people, they hack the site, do not defame but make these kind of changes, get email addresses, upload their own files, try to get root access, but this is insane, I wish him banned bythe google..

    Logically speaking, he/she should put in his/her AdSense ID. However, is it possible that someone who changed the file actually put in someone else AdSense ID?
