Possibility: More likely than not your gmail was flagged by your use. I've had a few of those ore likely than not your gmail was flagged by your use. I've had a few of those notices pop up logging into gmail. Sometimes when I try to visit a site on my notices pop up logging into gmail. Sometimes when I try to visit a site on my phone I will get a message saying you can't access this site because of your phone I will get a message saying you can't access this site because of your location. Searched the IP address my phone was using and it came back as an location. Searched the IP address my phone was using and it came back as an address in Germany. I live in Ohio lol. If you think you was hacked just check the address in Germany. I live in Ohio lol. If you think you was hacked just check the timestamp on the login attempt. If you know you was on your gmail it was timestamp on the login attempt. If you know you was on your gmail it was nothing more than false positive nothing more than false positive

I wouldnt worry about it too much. Keep a strong secure password and never enter it on open, public WiFi and you should be cool. If it persists and you are feeling a bit uneasy about it contact the Gmail team. It may just be that your email address has more public exposure now.
