People are being urged to be aware of a new scam doing the rounds where cyber fraudsters trick Gmail users into handing over their personal data and credit card details via a friendly-looking email.
The latest in a string of elaborate scams uses the Google brand to look legit. Someone who is being targeted will receive an email with the subject line: "Online Reward Program".
The body of the email explains that the recipient has just made the 18.25 billionth search on Google - meaning a reward is coming your way.
