Suspicious Sign-in alerts?-Reason

How to know if a sign-in is yours
With most people signing in to their account from multiple computers and mobile devices, it can sometimes be hard to tell if a sign-in was yours. We recommend you evaluate each sign-in by multiple criteria:

  • Proxy:

You may use a proxy site, sever, software or anything else to sign in to your gmail account.

  • Date and time

If you see a date or time when you know you did not access your account from your computer, phone or an application (for example, the Picasa desktop application, or an application for instant messaging or your email client), your account might have been hacked.

  • IP address and domain

For each sign-in we show the IP address and the IP owner's domain. The domain usually helps you identify an internet service provider that you may have used recently, including a mobile phone service. While we try to be as accurate as possible, sometimes the domain listed might be wrong. So if you’re still unsure whether a sign-in was yours, you can perform a reverse IP lookup. This will give you more information about the computer or device that signed in.

  • Location

If either the physical location or domain is not typical for you, this could be a sign-in from a hacker. Signing in to your account through a mobile phone could cause the physical location to be different from where you are, but the domain should still be that of your mobile phone’s service provider.
