Google has issued a very important warning. You need to change your Gmail password immediately. Attackers have targeted Gmail, which has over 2.5 billion active users worldwide.

According to information shared by Google, attackers are not only sending fake emails but also directly contacting users by phone, posing as Google Support. Many people have reportedly been deceived using this method. It was emphasized that two-factor authentication (2FA) alone is not sufficient, and in some cases, attackers can even obtain two-factor authentication codes.
Google has stated that users should change their passwords as soon as possible to secure their accounts.
One of the biggest mistakes users make is not changing their passwords regularly. If users haven't changed their passwords this year, they are advised to change them immediately. Additionally, simply changing your Gmail password isn't enough; if you haven't already, you should definitely switch to two-factor authentication. It's also recommended to use a passkey instead of a password manager within Chrome. Passkeys, which are biometric methods like fingerprints, facial recognition, or a PIN used to unlock your device, are much more resistant to phishing attacks.
Are you confident in the security of your password? Have you changed your Gmail password recently? If you haven't and you're watching this video, I recommend changing it immediately. Also, send it to your friends so they can change it too. Just in case, staying safe in the cyber world requires a little paranoia.
