I'm sure Google has noticed this on their own, but yesterday I got spammed by Google account recovery.
It seems someone figured out that you can take a random Google email account, set the full name to be (Chinese-language) spam advertising, and then switch the recovery address to be the people you want to spam one at a time, and Google dutifully sends each of them a message telling them that the account "spam advertising" has now had its recovery address set to this address. The mind boggles. https://youtu.be/euI3v2jpTlI -- /* * * Otto J.
