A new phishing scam over email has been reported across the country involving Google Documents.
The scam looks like a normal email share request for Google Docs. When the button is clicked on the email, it will send you to your drive just like a normal invite would. You would then choose which account you would like to open. By doing so, it allows the phisher full access to your email.
“We are investigating a phishing email that appears as Google Docs,”stated Gmail’s Twitter page on Wednesday. “We encourage you to not click through, and report as phishing within Gmail.
