Dear Google AdWords Customer!It looks all very official, but it turns out if you look at the html-code of the message, you'll see that although the link is showing https://adwords.google.com/support/bin/topic.py?topic=8336&hl=en_US, it is pointing to something like http://adwords.google.com.fr4ck.cn/select/Login/. This means that by filling out this page, users are making their credit-card information available for misuse by third parties.
In order to update your billing information, please sign in to your AdWords account at https://adwords.google.com, and update your billing information. Your account will be reactivated as soon as you have entered your payment details. Your ads will show immediately if you decide to pay for clicks via credit or debit card. If you decide to pay by direct debit, we may need to receive your signed debit authorization before your ads start running, depending on your location. If you choose bank transfer, your ads will show as soon as we receive your first payment. (Payment options vary by location.) Thank you for choosing AdWords. We look forward to providing you with the most effective advertising available.
Sincerely,
The Google AdWords Team
