On Wednesday, Gmail team sent users of of Google's email services a legal notice asking them to update their account details for security reasons. The legal notice from Gmail wanted users to update their personal information such as account name, password, occupation, birth date and country of residence. It also carried a threat that users who did not update their details within 7 days of receiving the warning would lose their account permanently. Internet and email phishing is on the rise in India. According to Rakshit Tandon, consultant safe surfing with the Internet & Mobile Association of India (IAMAI ), "A schoolteacher in Mumbai lost close to Rs 10 lakh after phishers got into her netbanking account. Internet penetration is going up which is inviting more criminal attacks as awareness levels are very low".
