Bah, I completely didn't see (2) first time around. Google groups really needs a better interface. Even doing "Newer" didn't reveal that post until I searched for it manually.
Has that tactic of getting an AdWords account worked for you? With which product?
I'm evaluating Google Checkout for a project of mine and between this and the Paypal thread, i'm starting to consider alternatives.
I had my complete Google account shutdown last year think it was (Someone tried to login as me a few times unsuccessfully).
The only way I could get it reinstated was because I had a phone number for Adwords, and could call them and say "err, you shut down my account, so I can't give you that money I was giving you".
Perhaps other divisions have good phone numbers and people willing to help, but Adwords seems like the best to me - the ones taking your money.
