Heads up GMail users - spammers on the prowl
Quote:
Nothing is safe from the phish-scam artists but with the popularity of Gmail, it was bound to happen. The scammers are targeting Gmail users in an attempt to trick them into submitting their private info. Thanks Joe.

It appears that there is a possible malicious email appearing in Gmail inboxes disguised as an invitation announcement. The mailing claims to be from the Gmail team and it "informs" the user that they have more invitations that can be given out.
