AdSense for Referral - Problem with rogue adverts?

    I have a number of AdSense Referral text ads - for Firefox, Google Pack, AdWords, etc.

    Since a few days ago, the text ads seem to have started serving very different texts! Rather than "Get Firefox with Google ToolBar" it now says "Free calls to Anywhere - Try it now ! Learn the free calls secret" (my site is telecommunications related) or even "Meet Chinese ladies for marriage" !!!

    This seems to happen intermittently - doing a SHIFT-<F5> forced page refresh changes the texts displayed ... I am very concerned, as these rogue links are discrediting to my site!!!

    Is this maybe a Google data center issue?

    Help!

    coolmanphp,

    I have seen less of this happening lately - maybe another one of those Google glitches...

    But the evidence is clearly to be seen in my AdSense Referrals report! Actually, I picked up a few cents from referrals that way :p

    @arcade32, I also only publish Firefox and Adwords - but on my report summary for the last 7 days I now see over 25 referral products listed ... including "Find local plastic surgeons", "White Paper Syndication", "Error Sweeper", etc. - no clicks on these, of course ...
