I got an interesting email from Google this morning, telling me that someone in the US had just tried to log into my Google account AND that they knew my password. (Which I changed within 1 or 2 minutes of the event, needless to say.)
In 16 years of internet usage, this is the first time that something has hit so close to home.
Google have all details including the IP address/location of whoever it was. Most definitely not my IP address. It's good that they block access in these situations. Must be based on the fact that I'm in Oz and the access attempt was in the US.
Dunno if they do anything in these cases though.
I was just wondering if this is a widespread thing, or just an isolated incident.
Has anyone had similar?
