Official Gmail Blog: Fighting phishing with eBay and PayPal

Here is a good news from Gmail.

Gmail has been working with eBay and PayPal to stopping all phishing messages in their tracks.

Here is what official Gmail blog says:

"Now any email that claims to come from "paypal.com" or "ebay.com" (and their international versions) is authenticated by Gmail and -- here comes the important part -- rejected if it fails to verify as actually coming from PayPal or eBay. That's right: you won't even see the phishing message in your spam folder. Gmail just won't accept it at all. Conversely, if you get an message in Gmail where the "From" says "@paypal.com" or "@ebay.com," then you'll know it actually came from PayPal or eBay. It's email the way it should be."

So Gmail account holders can now be sure of receiving only genuine messages from Paypal and abay in their inbox.
