Hey James,
Check for a plugin that you did NOT install. Chances are, your site got hacked when left unattended.
If you find the guilty plugin, ONLY deactivate it and then check your site again to see if the ads disappear. If they disappeared once you Deactivated the plugin... then you found the guilty plugin.
If you cannot find it... then DO report your issue to SiteSupport: https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/websites/support and they will track down the guilty party for you.
Hope you find this helpful.

Hey James,
Having received the same emailed messages, I can assure you that email is a fraud. Always telephone or email your provider so that you know for sure.
NEVER click on any links offered in ANY such email that you deem suspicious, as doing so could compromise your device... and if your device is connected to a network... clicking on their links could compromise your entire network.
The following video may help you: How to Determine if an Email is Spam Hope you find this helpful.
Just spam ignore and don't click any like nor respond many get that along the way.
It is also good you already know when your payment is due some forget and click the link only to get ripped off in the process.
wishing you well

Hi I always log in registrar where I purchase my domain and check from within Dashboard as to the authenticity before going ahead with anything.
Domain name renewal email notifications sent out before one month of expiry date.
Therefore what looks like a SCAM / SPAM.
Please do not click any links within, however rather a delete from your inbox so that no one falls victim.

Did you download any plugins lately? Crummy cheap or free ones can take over your site, placing those banner ads up there over your copy.

All of my websites are listed, but there are ads that are on every page that I did not put on there. Gonna contact site support. Thanks for the advice.
well support just answered my question about how the ads got on there, I am really lost now. Support told me to contact Google adsense about the ads, I guess they put the ads on everyone of my pages. I am so frustrated now as I have no idea how to contact Google Adsense. I did not know anyone could put ads on my private website. About ready to quit now, seems strange when you contact support for help and they tell you to contact someone outside of WA for help.
Ooookay... hang on and DO NOT PANIC.
