GOOGLE “YOUR PHOTO HAS HEEN SUCCESSFULLY PUBLISHED” PHISING SCAM

‎11-02-2018 01:35 PM

In case you get a message in your email or bulk emails that says “Google”. “YOUR PHOTO HAS BEEN SUCCESSFULLY PUBLISHED.” DONT click on it. It’s a phishing scam. Unlike other scams, this looks totally realistic with no spelling errors and a perfectly formatted screen. Just a warning I’m sharing with you all.

I don’t either but in this case the graphics were so real that I spent an hour online trying to find out if I even have Google Photos. I went through all of my settings at Google and I have no photos.
