Re: google adwords class action email?

I don't use adWords but from the people I've spoken to they've come to the conclusion it is genuine.

There's a thread about it over at my webhost's customer forum... http://www.unitedforums.co.uk/vb/sho...1308#post51308

Re: google adwords class action email?

I replied to mine saying it doesn't apply to me as I don't recognise US law - there's nothing like bashing one of their institutes to guarantee a reply!
