Although Google has a higly security policy for your Google Account, as well as Gmail, for example, if your account is signed in with a different IP address, Google will make that person verify their permission. It will be easy if it's youself, you know all your secret question, your phone with verification code. But sometimes, your account maybe hacked or if you've got a creeping suspicion that someone else is eyeing your inbox or you receive a weird email from someone you've never known about, you can check your "last activity" and that's what gmail login show you how to do.
In inbox view, scroll all the way down, and in the bottom right corner in tiny text, you'll see "Last account activity: X minutes ago". Click "Details," and Gmail will reveal exactly when each IP address accessed your account, plus what type of device they were using. If you find it unfamiliar, it's time for your to change to another stronger password to protect your information and messages. A article about it will appear soon in our blog.
