I am not on any shared device and the only other place I use the Gmail account associated with this problem is on my phone which is password protected. I have checked my account activity and noted that all access type, location (IP) to be from my end of the network. I have sensitive material in my Gmail account. I don't know whether this constitutes a breach of personal security or what. I have removed the Google Sheet from my possession before writing this posting. Also, the fact there appears to have people browsing it. I do not know who these people are and I do not know why I am in possession of this file that I am not associated with. Please look at attachment below (I blurred out my e-mail address).Ĭontent on the page date back to July 2017.
I quickly hovered over the name to expand it and took a screenshot of it just in time before the person left the page. I headed back to Google Sheets home to search up the owner and it says "Capt Rio Onasis MM." I went back to the page and realized that another individual is currently accessing the document. The person quickly left (maybe since I joined?).

I also noticed that there was someone else viewing the document as well with their full name and picture showing on the top tab. I pressed on it and it was a Google Sheet that was created in 2016 full of links (did not click on any of them). I typed a word and noticed that in the drop down at the way bottom was a Google Sheet icon and a title that said "New Liked Video." Since I have never used Google Sheets before and hadn't had any interactions with it at all, it was alarming. I happened to use the search bar in one of the accounts to search up something. Unknown Google Sheet Document in My Possession Mysterious People Leave Upon My Entrance Would be interested to hear if any other forum users have had the same issue and if they have managed to resolve it. I still have a fake google sheets on my drive and google cannot eradicate it. This ( below) is from a google docs forum - exactly the same issue. especially as Google are not able to eradicate it. There is never a good time to be hacked but at the start of a new year, when I was in the middle of a large project, it is very disturbing.
The first is a terrorist, the second a top IT specialist, supposedly. The names on my files are capt rio onasis ,dpo,mni and david ling nai chiew ling. You are not require to click on any email, the file just arrives into your account. It is similar to the google docs scam which was very effective but this is far worse. Please check your google sheets for any unknown file that arrives from outside. Therefore anyone that contacts me via email is also under threat. The logo on the sheets page is green with a white cross. The files remain on your system and Google has not found a way to remove them.Therefore the hackers cannot as yet be removed from your account. Google are keeping very quiet about this. The hackers put a up a fake google sheet page and insert files that you can neither touch or delete. It is a new very effective scam concerning google sheets. Even more so, as Google Chromebooks are meant to be safe. It’s ironic that I have just been hacked, after all my complaints of how we are under threat on a daily basis.
