Just blogged this http://www.vipey.com/google-adwords-hacked/ Google adwords accounts seem to be getting hacked im sure the earth4energy owner is on this forums so be interesting to see what he makes of this happening more and more it seems
Yes, it's been more common lately. My account was hacked last month, and someone charged over $12,000 over a weekend. Google investigated my account for 3 weeks, and finally figured out it was fraud. They wouldn't tell me who was responsible for the fraud, so I'm still wondering who did it. Be very careful about sharing your information.
Yeh hopefully google will sort this out but as i pointed on in my blog post it could lead to more verification for adwords Sorry to bump but cant edit the post been nearly 24 hours now and still nothing has been done http://www.google.com/search?q=earth4energy why have google done nothing about this?
There's been a recent increase in hacked AdWords accounts. Don't expect Google to take any action unless the owner(s) of the hacked accounts notice and complain. They have some automatic prevention measures in place but it's not all that hard for the people hacking the AdWords accounts to do so in a way that avoids initial detection.
ah ok cheers for that i just cant believe google haven't done anything, i reported this aswell as many others, they should really be acting quicker
well it could still affect me if i was also trying to bid but getting outbid by a fraudulent account, id be pretty pissed off if that was the case
well over 48hours now Google has really suprised me by not doing anything here its clear there being hacked either by credit cards or adwords accounts, its been all over twitter today and still nothing has been done
