January 24 2024 Scam Alert:
There's a new phishing email making the rounds that looks like an authentic message from Google, warning you that unless you take action your Gmail account will be closed and all your messages deleted. All you have to do is click the link to confirm or deny the action.
It is, of course, fake. It collects your password "for verification" then hijacks your account.
Don't click any link in an email no matter how official it looks. Instead, go to your Gmail dashboard directly. If there is indeed any risk Google wants to delete your account, you'll be notified there.

To my fellow trans people looking to setup a new email (that isn't google)
https://tuta.com
This looked to be the best alternative from what I've found. It's double end encrypted and the free plan is more than enough for most people and you can choose an email name that isn't terribly long.
