    You mean someone changed the account information in your adsense account?
    As per my knowledge only address can be changed.
    Once registered you cannot change the account holder name.

    yeah, it happens a lot, as accounts are obtained illegitimately, and details are changed so that the payout goes to someone else.

    Are you using a WordPress plugin? Some of them show the author's adsense account, instead of yours. Make sure you have set the revenue sharing to 0 in the plugin settings.
