Is it normal to get more spam from people who see your Adwords advertisements and mention the ads in the email or contact-form message than you get from any other sources ?

I just started using Adwords sparingly around the beginning of the year and the site I've used it on is still only a couple of months old.
I don't know it it's normal to get a lot of spam from people trying to sell me on different advertising programs by including details about the site and Adwords campaigns that aren't even in the ballpark, or not.

I've started to get more spam that I can trace back to using Adwords than I do from any other sources though.
