Fake adsense ads on myspace?

Has anyone yet noticed that there are google ads appearing at the top of some myspace profiles?

I noticed that they're in a frame, and when I view the source code of the frame, it appears to be a bogus javascript that is emulating a google ad and sending members to affiliate sites.

Is this the result of some scammer that has successfully implemented millions of adsense ads on the pages of myspace members?

Or, could this be part of the google / myspace deal and be legitimate? ..

I'll post the code when I find it again on myspace. These "Ads by Google" are appearing more and more on member pages.

Keep in mind google just joined myspace via an almost 1 billion dollar contract.

So the programmers might be playing around.

But who knows - I`m wrong much more often than I`m right.

It should be part of the 900m agreement google made with the owner of myspace.

I would assume it would be part of the 900 million dollar deal. They have to pay $25 million a month they might as well start making that money back as soon as possible.

It should be interesting to see how they capitlize on this massive myspace merger.

I have found the shady "imitation adsense" code that was used on a myspace page. Is this really by google or is it fake?
If it's fake, then someone is making a serious killing as I'm seeing this on lots of profiles!

It would be hard to believe that it's fake.
I'm sure it's part of the new deal.
