[Image_Management] CAUTION: Do not share your gmail id and pw with others

 

hi friends

Today, I received the following mail purported to be from gmail team.  The mail looks like a genuine mail.  Anybody may get cheated with this type of mail and may part with their gmail id and password. 

This is a typical 'phishing' exercise.  If you part with gmail id or pw, your account may be captured by them and used for illegal purposes.

CAUTION:  Whenever you receive any such mail purported to be from your bank, gmail, yahoo, hotmail or msn, etc, please do not repond to them and do not share your id and pw with them.

Always make a habit of opening the genuine site of your bank, gmail, yahoo, etc in a separate browser and then operate your account.  Please note no bank or no mail provider will ask for your id and pw through mail.  I know many instances of people sharing their id and pw and suffering later.  

This mail is issued only in public interest.  You may forward to others.
