If you are concered about that check your source code for your PID, then reload and view source again, and again, etc until you are sure it doesn't change. Alfred,

But at some point in time when the site is finished, I am required to send my Adsense PID to them. Supposedly I am to be handed my site completely finished- including adsense ads on it. I am just so afraid that my PID may be used wrongfully. Is it possible for someone to alter your PID code and use it to benefit themselves? For example I have 3 small blogs currently running adsense ads. This time I actually paid supposedly experts, for hosting and developing my site. Would it be possible for them to alter my PID code- by changing it and implementing it with their own, And then even my current blogs would be actually making money for them instead of me? Just curios.... I’ve just paid hosting for a web site and the site itself is currently being build. But at some point in time when the site is finished, I am required to send my Adsense PID to them.

Is this safe?
