When looking into my log, I caught those. But what can I do?
Really .. this is invalid traffic ... and I personally don't want it ... mostly because I don't want Adsense to think I am trying to cheat them.
Is there an easy way via apache/htaccess .... or as anyone been facing such a thing ... and what strategy can I put in place to make sure this don't happens?

If you cannot obtain the user name and password, then contact the owners of the service and deal with them directly on having that particular campaign shut down. There is an active campaign with your URL on it, and that's what you need to get shut down. I'm not sure you can ban these individuals by IP or any other way as they're all coming from different IPs and computers.
Definitely get rid of those so-called friends, or at least never, for the rest of your life, discuss your business activities with them.
Anyway ... I found a solution:
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST}!^.*na.html
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} .*theirdomain\.theirextension.*
RewriteRule ^.* myurl.ext/na.html [R=301,L]
Any comments on this would be appreciated. I am a newbie with htaccess ...
Thanks in advance.
