If you get a mail like this purportedly from gmail, be careful. It may not be from Google.
One way to test the genuinity may be to test with a false email and password. Such sites will just say "thank you for updating", as after all they can't confirm the account details. Always be sure to check web URL to see it is genuine and also the https part.
The phishing mail is as given below:
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Click this link now to Update you account
WARNING!!! Account owner that fails to verify his/her account after 1 weeks (7 days) of receiving this warning will lose his or her account permanently.
