was my email hacked or did gmail screw up?

Question

so i logs into my gmail account and i had a bunch of confirmation emails from sites i hadnt contacted for ages including 6 attempts to upload a seemingly blank video to youtube (the email said "the email/mms you sent did not have an attached video) also attempts to upload pictures and stuff to other sites again a bunh of fail messages and a bunch of do not responds and confirmation emails from people i didnt send anything to my sent and trash were empty (but then they always are) the strange thing in all of this all the confirmation emails had exactly the same time (1 was a minute out) and since its a gmail account i looked on the bottom for the seesion details and someone had loged in from an ip thialand but i was already and pretty much am logged in but my browsers (i have 4 different ones) seem to generate weird ip's sometimes so id be lying if i said i was convinced someone had actualy been in there. but the worrying part if it is hacker they sent somthing to the council (city/local housing im in uk)and i cant check with them to see what they received until monday it be anything im extremely concerned should i be contacting the police ? please help ! or is this some kind of bug with google (getting a bunch of old confirmations at some random time)

Answer 1

At the top of the email there is an item here that will open and display the header information of the email. This will give you detailed information. If the headers are all the same you know where it is coming from and yes your email may have been hacked. The police will not do anything unless there is an actual crime committed. Contact Gmail support and report this. Cancel the current Gmail account and then open a different one would be a good suggestion. If some one has actually hacked into your email, they can actually cause a lot of problems for you. Scan your computer for virsus and malware to make sure it is safe.

Yahoo won't do something? nicely, a minimum of notify you mastercard people and tell them to video reveal out for any vast finding out to purchase sprees. call them and ask to have your money stopped on the emails and despatched interior the mail

Answer 3

sounds like a good time to cancel g-mail and reboot and get another account. a little hassel, but g-mail is pretty open to any place you ever logged into.
