We noticed several phishing attempts from some Google impostors. After contacting our Google representatives this morning, they confirmed that those emails were not authentic. If you receive ANY emails from “Google AdWords” or any a similar source, claiming a payment was not processed and asking you to click on a link to resolve the issue, do not click on that link. Just forward the email to Google help through your webmasters account if you have one. Screenshots will show you what those emails look like.

Adwords and YSM phishing has been active for a long time. I am sure Google is already well aware of this. All they can do is alert their users i dont think they can do anything more than that.

@chrisharris1 agreed, and it raised a red flag for me because I noticed a bunch of unrelated accounts suffering this today, around the same time. So it is more of a warning that there seems to be a wave going on and get feedback from other people who may have noticed the same.
