Check your Gmail account – Good to Know – Google: "Update your secondary email address and your security question, and provide a mobile phone for SMS-based account recovery. This will help you recover your account if you ever lose access to it. Make sure that you have access to the email address listed as your secondary and/or the mobile number to which an SMS-recovery message would be sent. Also, be sure the answer to your security question is easy for you to remember but hard for others to guess. Use a secure connection when signing in. By default, Gmail accounts use a secure HTTPS connection—a setting to help protect your information from being stolen when you’re signing in to a Gmail account on a public wireless network, like a cafe or hotel. You can view or change your settings at any time in Gmail or Gmail for Mobile. Check for unusual access or activity in your account. Regularly review your account for unfamiliar or suspicious activity. You can see the last account activity recorded at the bottom of the page, including the most recent IP addresses accessing the account. For more tips on keeping your Gmail account secure, take a minute to complete our Gmail security checklist."
