Just got this email through to my non-gmail account.

To initiate the process for resetting the password for your ******@gmail.com Google Account, visit the link below

http://www.google.com/accounts/RP?c=*******************&hl=en

If clicking the link above does not work, copy and paste the URL in a new browser window instead.

The email address it gave at the top that I've starred out was the correct one and this came from [email protected] or something similar.

Since I didn't try to reset the password I'm just wondering if it's spam or just someone trying to get into my emails?! Anyone received anything similar and know for sure either way?
 
I'd say it looks like somebody tried to enter your account. It's possible that it was an honest mistage. Somebody could have mistyped theirs, not realized it, and subnmitted a new password request to gmail.

I wouldn't be concerned.
 
That's what I'm guessing/hoping, or someone didnt realise that it would email my second address when they clicked the "forgotten my password" link! Although I can't think of that many people who'd want to read my personal emails :eek:
 
The links were legit and I just went through the forgotten password thing again and got an identical email so it was indeed either someone mistyping or someone trying to read all my OCUK forum alerts :eek:
