    Strange device accessing my gmail?

    Posted 13 years 8 months ago
    • Hii, very off topic, but logged into my gmail, and it said it was being used in 1 other location. So I checked the log, and it says that there was a random ip i've never seen accessing from Ireland (see screenshot). I did a whois, and it came back with attached info - seems something to do with Amazon? But why would they be accessing my emails? I'm well confused.

    • Apparently it amazon's cloud service based in Ireland that backs up your Gmail to itself.
      A few people seem to have noticed it accessing their's and they havent worried.
