Police breach notice de Google

Certains utilisateur de Google Adsense ont reçu un étrange mail intitulé " Police breach notice".

A priori, ce mail vient de Google et plus précisément de [email protected]

Ce mail indique:

Dear Publisher,

Thank you for your efforts to date to stop personally identifiable information (PII) being passed to Google through ad requests.

Please note that we have not detected personally identifiable information being passed through the ad requests associated with your account in 16494 days.

We will continue to monitor your account to ensure that the issue has been comprehensively resolved.

Regards,

The Google Policy Team

Qu'est-ce que c'est que ce truc ??

- un autre internaute semble avoir reçu aussi ce fameux 16494 jours .. ce qui semble indiquer qu'il s'agit soit d'un fake soit d'une erreur de Google

- rare un mail de Google où on a à la fois "Thanks you" et "we will continue" comme si on faisait qqch de mal ..

En cherchant avec " [email protected] ", on trouve sur http://phishlist.com/policy-breach-notice-the-google-policy-team-email/  qqch d'à peu près rassurant comme raisonnement ..

A suivre ...

MAJ 3 mars:

Il s'agissait bien d'une erreur:

This weekend the Google Ads Policy system inadvertently sent publishers a message informing them that they had resolved a violation of the Identifying Users policy, or that Google had not seen PII sent from their account for a certain number of days.

The message was sent in error; we would like to convey our sincerest apologies for the alarm that this must have caused you and your colleagues.

You do not need to take specific action on this erroneous message however, due to the dynamic nature of publisher monetization we encourage you to periodically review our resources regarding PII.
