    i recently checked my adsense acc and saw 3k views unchanneled its obvious someone is abusing my adsense code i contacted adsense to get the urls where these 3k unchanelled came from.

    Any other way to find out where they came from?

    If Google wants to track this person down they'll be able to track them down. They may live in another country, but Google will know who is behind the click spamming of your site.

    Hi,

    I've noticed the exact same thing over the last few days, slightly worrying, yesterday for example:

    Overview - 4267 impressions
    channels - 1722 impressions

    no monetary difference!!

    It's had a worryingly huge effect on my CTR..

    I have just one channel per site, every site I own.

    Craig

    Hi,

    Just wondered GNET if this is still occuring for you, it is for me and the discrepancy between the overview and channels get's larger everyday.

    Does anyone think it might have something to do with cached pages in the search engines?

    Not so long ago I got rid of 7 or 8 sites that I displayed adsense on, looking at the search engine results those sites are still listed with cached pages showing my old content and adsense ads,could that be a possible cause..

    Or, I have a site that ranks well for pictures that I recently aquired, could it be racking up impressions through google images..

    Maybe I'm thinking too much :)

    Probably someone copy your website but forgot to remove the Adsense code (something they can do by editing the HTML source).

    KingofKings, I actually have seen one of my site being copied that way, carbon copy to be exact in term of design and word-by-word. Unfortunately, the AdSense code was change, otherwise I would have made a fortune :)

    Hi,

    I think I've tracked down what I believe may be the culprit with regards to my increased impressions. Unless someone knows if they are legitimate.. These are somehow racking up thousands of hits on one of my sites.

    - http:// feed13.free-feed.in/search.php
    - http:// feed14.free-feed.in/search.php
    - http:// dgon2000.com/feed/search.php

    - http:// feed2.free-feed.in/search.php
    - http:// feed3.free-feed.in/search.php
    - http:// feed1.free-feed.in/search.php

    Any ideas how to stop this anyone..
