I have done extra shopping online this month, but was under the impression that the few places, like Old Navy and Dancing Deer, where I did shop on were secure sites. There are no other funny charges for this month. So I am utterly confused as to how/why this charge ends up on my card. DH thinks maybe someone has my cc number - but if they did, why only charge this google adwords, and not have bought other things from other places? Looks like this card might have to canceled. -- Anyway, it is just a mystery to me.
Was it actually Google Adwords or was it some kind of trial service for a "Make Money With Google" type thing? If it was Google Adwords, Google would want to know about that fraud. It if was one of those making money with Google kind of things, I would cancel the card because your number got out somehow.

Clicking on the Google Ad on our page wouldn't charge anything for Google Adwords. They actually pay US to be on the page. You would just be going to an advertiser's site. My money is on the fact that it was a "Get Rich With Google Adwords" type offer somehow billed to you.
