Hi Barry.
No. it's only if you receive an email supposedly from google asking you
to log in to your account to complete an action.

Thanks, Mo. Does this mean that we have to check the address bar every time we use gmail?

Hello John.
I really did send this. I used tiny URL to shorten the link as it was over 100 characters long. Barry, as long as the address starts with HTTPS://accounts.google.com and nothing else you should be fine.
very best wishes,
Mo.

Hi Mo
I didn't click on the link as I'm checking to make sure this email
isgenuine. Do you know tinyurl.com is itself used in hack attacks?
Did you really send this or have you got a virus doing it?

Hello everyone.
I would urge everyone to watch out for this very devious email
trick that hackers are pulling. The following link contains all
the details.
