blogspot requesting access to my AdSense stats

[sauron0512]

I recently put ads on my blogspot . Now they have sent me a link requesting access to my adsense account which will enable them to view all the Adsense data. should i accept it.

That issue has been discussed here already wayback July, and AdsenseAdvisor said that it was a legitimate request from Google (Blogger.com is owned by Google).

It is a legitimate request - but you do not need to let them have access.

You can still run adsense on blogger blogs without giving blogger access to your stats. I would assume you were already an adsense publisher and had already signed up directly with google... most of the time, it is people who are signing up to get new adsense accounts via blogger.com would receive that email.
