Google enhances anti-phishing measures
In the light of recent events related to fraud on behalf of well-known companies (Google also suffered ), an entry on the connection of a new feature, an anti-phishing filter, appeared in the GMail developers blog. You can activate this setting in the Labs tab in your email account.
Currently, incoming emails from eBay and PayPal services will be checked for matching correct addresses in the "From" line.
These letters received from these recipients will be marked with a special icon in the form of a key. Messages that fail to check will be eliminated and will not even get into the “Spam” folder in Gmail. In the future, the developers plan to connect several more addresses of large services (financial advantage, since most phishing messages fall on this sector).
