After lots of research as to why, using G's inurl:mysitedotcom search we discovered a scammer who was somehow framing my website and putting his own Adsense unit on the top of my index page.
We reported the fraud and theft of our traffic and clicks with all the details to G but after a week the illegal ad is still on our site and all we get from G is a canned response to our request they close the fraudtsers account at once.
We have 2 questions we need help on:
(1) Is there some programming or server work we can do ourselves to stop this rather than wait a long time for G to take action?
(2) Is there an easier way to spot this in the future as we suspect it's also happening with some other sites we run.
How do the scammers do this so easily anyway? Is it common? Why is it when we go to our own site the scam is not visible but when other IP's visit it's there? How is it done? If that was not done we would have spotted this much earlier than we did.
Fast feedback would be very appeciated.
Also still would like feedback on these:
(1) Solved. Thanks.

Yes, I was once contacted by Googles adsense team warning me I was running conflicting advertising on a domain I did not own.
My pages were being framed, I immediately informed google of the situation and added frame busting code on all pages.
