Is Google sucking wind or is this just a phase - kinda of like Microsoft?
My account is comprised every 1 to 2 weeks. Google does nothing except send these automated e-mails about they have completed their investigation and they can do nothing - so I am kicked out of my account -

Inappropriate?So I have a couple concerns here.
First, accounts get compromised when you have an easy to guess password. Make sure your accounts have a password which is difficult to guess. Using capital letters, numbers, and punctuation is encouraged.
Second, it sounds like those are fake emails. Sometimes spammers send fraudulent emails and attempt to trick you into entering your username and password (called phishing). As soon as you do, they will steal your account.
These two ways are the most common for one to lose control over their account. In general, should never have this trouble.
I’m optimistic

Inappropriate?Phil - thanks for your reply. First - my password is pretty strong and you cannot guess it - it has numbers and letters etc. Well I have been at the computer - especially email since the 90s and I have been in high tech for a long time - so I get the phishing stuff - it seems like this happens when Iog onto Facebook -
Anyway - how do I get control of my account back? That is what I want to know -
Inappropriate?Okay- I have control of my account again -
