New Gmail Phishing scam to watch for

Hello, we are hearing about a new email scam making the rounds and want to keep you informed. 
  • A new Gmail phishing attack is using legitimate emails and attachments from people you know to trick you into clicking on a message.
  • Clicking on the fake attachment directs victims to a fake Google login page. The only way to tell it isn't real is to look in your browser's address bar: Fake sites are preceded by data:text/html instead of something like https://accounts.google.com.
