Some spammer pretending to be writing on behalf of Gmail service center asking me for my email account and password. This kind of spam is so scary and dangerous.
These days even people with minimum awareness about spam mails, mail virus internet frauds etc use gmail and other mail clients. Am sure if a naive person like that, my mom and dad for example, would get this mail he/she would fall into the trap and send away their account details to a spammer exposing them to extreme internet risks.
May be Google should try to nail these kinds of frauds and give some press statement or something cautioning users to be beware of such fraud.
