Beware of unusual phishing – Gmail

Lost24

Unusual phishing campaign targetted at Gmail users.


Niebezpiecznik warns its readers of a rather insidious form of phishing. One of the readers of the portal has received an e-mail that gives the impression of security warning sent out by Google’s internal mechanisms.


The message informs the user that he has attempted to log into his account from abroad and asks for confirmation or denial of the suspicious login on the user account.


According to Niebezpiecznik under the included Yes, it’s me / No it’s not me buttons may contain links to malicious software download or phishing message in which the victim is prompted to re-authenticate or change the password as part of security. In this case, nothing dangerous was hidden.
