Yep, I also got this message, it said 5 million gmail passwords were
leaked, the best thing to do is delete these messages, and go to the
gmail site directly if you are concerned. I put that message right
where it belonged, in the trash.
Original message:
Listers,
I think it was yesterday or the day before that I found among the
messages from the list an e-mail containing a warning of a possible
leak of e-mail addresses from gmail. The messaged contained
instructions on how to check whether one's e-mail was possibly
compromised or not. The website to go to was is leaked.com.
As I saw no reference to this by any other member of the group, I now
wonder whether it was spam. Has anyone else received this warning? Is
the website isleaked.com genuine? I connected to it to check my e-mail
address. It opened in Russian and from there there was a link to the US
version and Spanish version and possibly others as well. I now worry
that the whole thing was spam and I may have revealed my address to a hacker.
I'd be very grateful to hear whether anyone else has been notified by
this e-mail of a possible theft of millions of gmail addresses.
Thank you.
Andrew
