Firstly, Google's excellent Gmail service is smart enough to know when a message in a subscriber's inbox might not be all that it seems. So when I get a missive from Paypal warning me that my account has been suspended because of possible fraudulent action, and inviting me to reconfirm my details, there's a banner at the top that boldly warns me that this message may not be from whom it appears to be, and I am advised to beware of acting on it or clicking any links within it.
My compliments to Google for implementing such technology. It's a brave thing to do, because there's a possible risk that things might get legal if the system starts producing false-positives. Let's hope that this never happens. If only such procedures were employed by more email providers, the internet might be a slightly safer place.
