    From my experiences the legal systems sucks and you will never see that money again. But, still you should file a police report and file a civil lawsuit. Start keeping records and a diary of what has happened. Log everything into it. Then send Google the proof you are the owner of the account along with the police report. It is hard to tell you specifically what to do because we are probably missing all the details but that should get you going in the right direction.

    yes, i agree to this, in any way if he is using your SS then you can get it changed with a email to google, then he ends up loosing the account

    So, what happened with this guy that suddenly he's turned on you? Is he just an unscrupulous person who was awaiting the right opportunity, or did you do something to alienate him and make him want to get back at you somehow? You say that you contacted him and he has "No intentions of giving it back". There must be a reason.

    I agree with several other posts in this thread...online partners can't be trusted in most cases, which is why I work alone.

    Good luck!

    Good News!!

    Google replied back and gave me access to the account again. I was able to login and disable his access now.

    I disabled this guy's access before he disabled me on the 14th... maybe he gained access to the account like I just did. I hope closing the account will stop him from gaining access again...

    Hmmm, would you guys recommend anything else to stop him from gaining access again?

    Many thanks guys,

    Lol so I moved the adwords/adsense account to another google account of mine, disabled his access, changed passwords, closed the adwords account.


    I hope that'll do it. :)

    Well, luckily he doesn't know much about adsense. He doesn't use adsense, or know the rules or anything about it. In other words, he's retarded I like to think.

    But anyway, I still have my account and now it's time to start placing me ads.

    For anyone reading, if some how you lose access to your adwords/adsense account. Give Google some time, they'll look into it and grant you access again. Just keep trying and you'll get your account back.

    So... my business partner got access to my account AGAIN!!

    He disabled me again...

    I just got off chat with Google adwords, and they're going to try and help me out.

    Just waiting on an email from them now.

    Crap...

    It's under my name, address, SS#, everything!

    I gave him access to my adwords account, which I just found out is tied to adsense.

    If your adwords account moves... so does adsense..

    Just a heads up.

    Still waiting on google...

    If it's under your name, then it cannot be changed easily. Cheques are delivered under your name too. Tell your business partner that and ask him to reconsider.

    Maybe he has a trojan on your machine and is changing the password.
