I setup allowed site's in my Adsense account around 5 days ago. Yesterday I noticed that 2 sites (Not mine) displayed ads on there sites using my publisher ID! What the heck should I do, and what type of malicious activity could these people have done using my publisher ID? Any tips would be appreciated! I think I will send G an email to be safe.
Dun worry!!! Nothing will happen because those sites click won't be counted as you have set up allowed site in your adsense account. you know- Adsense is really Publisher friendly
If you put AdSense for Search on your sites and did not set up a page on your site to display the search results, Google will, by default, display the search results on its own server. Google's IP address will appear on your account as a site not allowed by you to display ads using your publisher ID. Try doing a whois on the IP addresses to see what sites are displaying ads using your publisher ID. You'll be able to tell if it's a Google server or not from the results of the whois.
This blog is really awesome... i got a great idea & the features about adsense better... though i m using asense since 5-6months i never used this option... Thanks to DP n u who introduced me to this...
You welcome It is the G! Adsense official blog. You should check it often for announcements, guidelines e.t.c
you must list your sites under allowed sites panel on your adsense panel. this will solve your problem
Google's reply to me: Thanks for your email. Occasionally, traffic programs or proxy sites frame your pages resulting in your ads appearing on URLs similar to the ones described in your email. Rest assured your account remains in good standing. Thanks for your cooperation. Sincerely, Sean The Google AdSense Team

It happens that web directories or search engines (G! as well), display your ads on pages with frames, or cached version of you rpages ... Hese is aexample where google displays DP ads
