Have gotten multiple such emails the last couple of weeks.

I think Googles spam detection is a bit too much lax when the sender itself is using gmail.

These might as well be hacked accounts which have already proven themselves to be valid and "human" at a previous point in time? I doubt gmails spam detection would let a brand new account spam CC'd emails without any sort of detection.



GMail has been making it harder to sign into old accounts, forcing me to verify my device and also add a phone number to my old email accounts, and then sometimes still refuses to let me sign in.
