Often times, but not every time, when two threads create campaigns with similar names for the same account, e.g. 40AC459A-E44F-4ED4-AB8C-ECFD653E216F-GES and 40AC459A-E44F-4ED4-AB8C-ECFD653E216F-GEL or 40AC459A-E44F-4ED4-AB8C-ECFD653E216F-IPS and 40AC459A-E44F-4ED4-AB8C-ECFD653E216F-IPL
Google API assigns the same ID to these campaigns. We are not always able to detect this condition timely, which results in all sorts of problems for our system, including duplicate stats. The remedy is to erase IDs for one of the campaigns and its contents, which marks them as "new" in our system - new elements get submitted to Google again using create APIs (or the new ADD APIs), in which case we get correct IDs. We are unable to reproduce it every time, but with 550K+ campaigns it becomes a nuisance.
