If you have a Gmail account and happen to receive a mail claiming to be from the Gmail Team, asking for details like your password, date of birth and nationality, do not respond. It is a new trick adopted by hackers to fool the users. The mails say that Gmail is working on total security on all accounts and for this, they require all Google members to verify their accounts with Google. It asks the user to click on the reply button and fill the information in the fields given within seven days of receiving the mail in order to prevent closure of their mail accounts. A Google official said, âThis is a phishing attempt. At Google, we take account safety very seriously and provide a number of features to help users avoid being hacked. We have a series of educational blog posts on choosing a smart password, Gmail account security tips and how to avoid getting hooked.â
