Vorsicht, im Moment sind wieder viele gefälschte Phishing-Emails unterwegs, bei denen versucht wird, die Adwords-Login-Daten ahnungsloser Kunden zu bekommen… Der gefährliche E-Mail-Text vom vermeintlichen Absender “reactivation@google.com” lautet:
Dear Google AdWords Customer,
Your ads have stopped running because we were unable to process your billing information. We will reactivate you account after you update your billing information. In order to reactivate your account, please sign it to your account at http://adwordsgoogle.com/select/login, and update your billing information. Once your account is reactivated and your billing information has been processed, any your ads and campaigns can begin running immediately on Google.
You will not be asked to submit your billing information every time you create a new ad or campaign. If your payment has been declined and you’d like to resubmit the same credit card information, you may also do so by clicking the Retry card button on your Billing Preferences page. After updating your credit card information (regardless of whether or not you use a different card), it can take up to 24 hours before your ads start running again. You also have the option of providing a backup credit card to help ensure that your ads run continuously in the case that your primary payment method fails.
Sincerely,
The Google AdWords Team
