GOOGLE DOCS HACK

There is a new hack going around in gmail where someone you’ve contact or someone you don’t even know sends you a weird ass email about a google document:
The most common hack is from someone with a bunch of h’s….
If you click it…. it takes you to this google docs “sign in” page. When in reality, google doesn’t require you to put in your password to view a document if you’re already logged in.
One you type in your password into this scam, boom. Your account is hacked and the hacker will use your account to send more scam emails.
So yeah, DO NOT CLICK ON THIS DOCUMENT. I know this is a very busy time in the school year and students have a bunch of google docs projects and essays to do, so it’s possible some people will click it thinking it’s for school. But please, be careful and don’t click on a google docs email unless you’re 100% sure someone you know is sending you one.
Please spread this around bc I would absolutely lose my shit if this happened to me during a project and don’t want any of ya’ll to go through that.
This literally just happened to my entire campus.
heads up this isnt a gmail only thing!! my mom uses yahoo (i know, i know) and she got one that was “from” my english teacher. the yahoo account might be connected to her backup gmail somehow, idk. but anyway, this is seriously happening to a lot of people, enough that my school sent out a district-wide email about it. remember the old wisdom, kids: if it seems shady, it probably is.
