Android Question What harm can happen if I forget to remove my Google Mob Ad key from the project, before giving the source to someone ?

Well, what harm can happen if I forget to remove my Google Mob Ad key from the project, before giving the source to someone ?

If they use my key then the earning of the app will come to my a/c, no ?
But there must be some bad consequence as as members here always remove their keys.

Please guide me here.

It is better to remove but I don't think that it is a big deal. It it not difficult for a hacker to extract this key from the APK any way.

It is more likely that your key will be used for some ad fraud...
