Is it safe to share your adsense channel id's?

    I have an opportunity to have a share of revenue on someone else's website in exchange for driving traffic. He want's my publisher id, which I've already given to him and a channel id for tracking purposes. All of the sudden I've become paranoid that I might end up in hot water with Google. Is it safe, or should I not risk it? I haven't sent the channel id yet.

    Can someone do something malicious with my pub and channel id's?

    If you don't trust a person do not give. If you have already given once and do not want your id to be published there any more, use allowed sites function in your google adsense panel...

    Your publisher ID is 0010307835819465 and one of your channel IDs is 3960157400. These are included in your site's HTML code for everyone to see; took me about 5 seconds to find them. So no, it's not a risk; if it were, anyone who had Adsense on their pages would be at risk.

    If you are concerned about misuse, Google's Adsense setup page allows you to whitelist specific domains, and then nobody else would be able to put your pub ID on their pages.
