Hey, don't blame us- we don't know what he's talking about either.

Heya folks, for one, I am not an American!
And second, didn't ya login to Adwords today?
I wonder if the april fool joke they presented me is a local thing...

[jtara]

Maybe Adwords wasn't just the right place for Google to slip-in an April Fool's joke...

I mean, wouldn't it have been preferable to, say, just randomly alter maps or driving directions?

Quite correct, jtara. This was not an April Fools joke, nor has there ever been one on the AdWords side of things.

This is actually a legitimate account alert, which was mistakenly sent to a handful of accounts.

I hope you're not disappointed, humblebeginnings! I can certainly see how this might have appeared to be an April Fools message. ;)

Thanks very much AWA, I thought I was going bonkers cause G prompted me to lower my daily budget to 25 cents or else! Of course I didn't do that...

Now the only question is, what makes me look more stupid; being fooled on april 1st, or thinking they try to fool me while in fact there is no joke at all.
