    I got a request from gmail to enter my phone number so they could send me a code to change my password! Also I just got a popup on the gmail site that says it looks like someone in the Netherlands has accessed my gmail account! What should I do?

    Whatever you do, do NOT give your phone number that was requested.
    If your password needs changing, it can be done at the gMail site under "My Account".
