Hey guyz,
just realized that one of my site hasn't any pageviews today when usually has XXX+/day. I checked the pub-XXXXXXXXXXXx and was changed. Should i report this to g?

well, I'd humbly say F*#$ YEAH you should! I volunteer to castrate this SOB for you if you catch them...

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

How was someone able to change it?

sandossu · #5 Jul 16th 2006, 2:10 pm

you should report it and i think he`ll have he`s account suspended

Interesting. How could this happen?

btw, Report it to Google immediately!

**Shoemoney** · #7 Jul 16th 2006, 2:19 pm

umm... check your server logs and report it to the police. Its most likely someone who knows you well.

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..

Did you ever give anyone access to you hosting account and forget to change the password?

Dazed_and_confused · #10 Jul 16th 2006, 2:50 pm

I don't know guys, the site has an upload system and always these programs have security issues. Anyway reported to g and hope the guy will be caught.

All hosts do not provide the same bells and whistles. One of my hosts provides the following.

Check your server log.

**Shoemoney** · #15 Jul 16th 2006, 5:19 pm

yea your provider will be able to tell you all of this....

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?

i think G would ban him..so report him.
