Worst of all is that now also many backlinks pointing to my site (widget.com) are now credited to foo.com and I am daily loosing Pagerank and pages.
They are working with "http-equiv=refresh"
emails to Google are not getting any responds.
This is part of their Source-Code:
( I have changed their name by FOO )
<html><head>
<title>Widget's Original Page Title</title>
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; url=http://widget.com">
<meta name="robots" content="follow, noindex">
</head>
<body bgcolor="#FFFFFF" text="#000000">
... some more HTML here ....

<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript">
<!--
google_ad_client = 'FOO_728x90';
google_ad_width = 728;
google_ad_height = 90;
google_ad_format = '728x90_sln';

There is currently alot of this going on, but I dont understand why Google sees the Hijacker as the original page and completely bans our site out of the Index.
[google.com...]
I will have a look into those links.
But I had already send an email to Adsense reporting this topic.
Still the matter remains why Google is dropping completely my pages in the Serps (very high positions for our topic) and replacing them in the same position with the other site
widget.com
replaced with:
foo.com/some-keyword/widget-com.html
widget.com/topic1.html
replaced with
foo.com/some-keyword/widget-com-topic1.html
... etc
and with dropping I mean ... completely disappearing out of the SERPS ... banned ... gone ... vanished!
a P6 site with more than 4,000 backlinks
(completely white, no funny SEO stuff at all)
All my other pages are still in the SERPS and are daily receiving the visit of Googlebot ... It's only the pages that are Hijacked that are gone
This one is just for AdSense specific issues :)
I've tried to ask this question twice before and each time i've mentioned the name, my post has been yanked.
The site's name is two words---the word "copy", and the second word rhymes with cape.
here's the question: is it safe to use this website's service? Does anyone have input re: this?

Hijacker "www.foo.net" has a page named:
"www.foo.net/some-keyword/www-widget-com.html"
This page has No-Content at all but only the Tag:
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; url=http://www.widget.com/">
Because the Google-Bot treats this meta-refresh as a 302-redirect (Moved Temporarily), the Google bot and algo index the URL of the redirecting-hijacker-page with the content of your-page to which the meta-tag redirects.
As soon as You change content on your page, the last updated date of your page changes, the hijacking page keeps its date, so that your page becomes the younger page which then gets booted under the "duplicate content" filter ... a simple Google glitch
They will certainly guide you & give you the fax number.
