Greg Laptevsky has written a good post on the need for securing your pay per clicks campaigns on practicalecommerce.com.

 

“If you thought click fraud was bad, consider this: your Google AdWords, Yahoo! Search Marketing ads and Microsoft adCenter accounts are new targets for spyware applications, hackers and scam artists. - practicalecommerce.com
