strange referrals

suddenly alot of referrals form ads.yieldmanager

Hi All,

Since last week I started noticing a fair proportion of referrals coming in from ad.yieldmanager.com/imp. A bit of googling showed that yieldmanager is a platform used by Right Media.

Right Media seems to be a legit advertising network, however my concern is that I never advertised my website anywhere, all traffic has always been organic.

Should I be concerned, notify adsense support or just relax?

P.S. I hope this post does not violate the no-URL policy as it doesn't include publishers' addresses.

The referrer URL does look alarming as it has things like "&forced_click=". What is even more interesting that the referring IP belongs to Google...

I guess I'll drop a note to adsense support.

Update: just found out that the referring IP was "Google Content Accelerator", a proxy server.
