Gmail - huh?

I keep getting these messages from the gmail admin, telling me to go to a specified link and follow some instructions if I don't want to lose my gmail account. But the link only brings me back to my gmail inbox, and there aren't any instructions.

Has anyone else with a gmail account had this ?

    definitely sounds like spam / phishing whatever - somebody is trying to get your password.

    thats..odd. i would check the full headers on the email from the gmail admin to verify its coming from an actual google admin.

    on the email: show options/show original will show the whole header path stuff.

    thanks all. I'm just going to delete the email then. If my account gets suspended I don't care 'cos I have other email accounts anyway.

    That's a good idea; sounds phishy. I've received nothing in my inbox like that either.
