My wife received the unexpected gmail below today, and I'm not sure what it means or what my next steps should be.
Whois tells me that the domain cycaille.com was registered TODAY, for 12 months, by 1&1 Internet Inc, who incidentally used to host some domains for us until approx 12 years ago.
The domain cycaille.com means nothing to us.
My wifes gmail address has not been used much publicly.
Generally, she uses a different email address attached to her domain, which is then forwarded to her gmail address.
The button & links in the gmail have google notification links behind them, but I can decode these links to anything useful.
Is this a malicious email?
If so what is the end game? Are the google notifications links going to lead to google account takeover??
Should I just click "Report phishing" and move on?
Has anyone see this before??
Thanks,
nige0090
