Highly effective Gmail phishing technique

Post by b0b »

This is a trick that hackers are using to get the login credentials of Gmail.com accounts. The article shows how to spot it and avoid being hacked. Bottom line, if you click a link in an email and it asks you to login to Google again, something is phishy. Look at the address carefully before you click.
