This weekend, my Google stats said that a site called copyscape (.com) was displaying my ads as an unauthorized site. I went to the site, and they seem legitimate - supposedly you can enter your url and find out if anyone has scraped your site. Anybody else have this happen to them?

Sounds like someone is scraping your site, or else they're checking to see if you're scraping their site.

It is common vero, I see them in our list daily. We have many companies submitting product reviews to us but these companies also use copyscape to make sure other sites arent using there content without permission.

When they view matchs in copyscape it shows your ad with the page and thats why you are seeing the ping from them.
