This is disturbingly clever. You get sent to a text/html data URI! Not testing any further but, blimey, talk about using power for evil.pic.twitter.com/TamVn7DBfW
This is the closest I've ever come to falling for a Gmail phishing attack. If it hadn't been for my high-DPI screen making the image fuzzy…pic.twitter.com/MizEWYksBh

One pretty simple sanity check for this: I use
@1Password for my passwords. If it doesn't autofill, I look deeper to find out why. -
There's always that "why aren't you filling?!" followed by "wait a minute..."

You just got a new customer

Awesome! Let me know if you need anything!

There are people with their email client set to download images? I'm shocked and appalled.

It's embedded, so yes. No external stuff being loaded.

That is so mean! There are so many people, who have no clue about phishing attacks...
-
To native English Speakers: Is "That is so mean!" correct English?
-
Yep, that sounds right!

Thanks!

yeah but the real Gmail attachment the drive and download buttons would change when you rollover them
-
Honestly, I wouldn't have noticed. I'd have clicked on the main image, which is already in the rollover state.

correct me if I'm wrong but if you are already logged with your gmail account you don't need to log in again to google drive.
-
Right, but Google will sometimes just sign you out, or arbitrarily ask for a password again. Does for me, anyway.
-
Doesn’t the asking for a password again usually follow the expiration of the cookie? Or is it just random?
-
Major sites consider lots of things when deciding to ask you to login again: unusual activity...
-
...attempts to change settings, attempts to access any data that might be 'personal'...
-
...unusual purchase attempts, access from a different device or browser since last logged in...
-
...change of IP address, change of location, unusual browsing activity...
-
Right. Tweets didn’t really have enough room for me to list all of those. XD
