I don't know if we're talking about the same thing. The emails
I got were like this:
Hi *******,
Someone recently tried to use an application to sign in to your
Google Account - ****************.
We prevented the sign-in attempt in case this was a hijacker
trying to access your account. Please review the details of the
sign-in attempt:
Thursday, March 28, 2013 11:39:22 AM UTC
IP Address: X
Location: X
If you do not recognize this sign-in attempt, someone else
might be trying to access your account. You should sign in to
your account and reset your password immediately."
And like I said, the (X) IP's and Locations were all on RIPE,
(lndia & Russ1a). Either it's (so far) rare, or no one is
posting anything about it because a 'last 24hr' search only
results in one result:

Or, most likely I'm guessing the SE spiders just haven't found
the pages yet, if they exist.

Yes. Had to verify my Droid as an allowed device.
