Gmail is having issues with spam and misclassification | TechCrunch
"If your Gmail account doesn't seem to be working properly today, you're not alone. The official status dashboard for Google Workspace suggests that the issues began at around 5am Pacific on Saturday morning, with users experiencing both "misclassification of emails in their inbox and additional spam warnings." For me, that meant my Primary inbox was filled with messages that would normally appear in the Promotions, Social, or Updates inboxes, and that spam warnings were appearing in emails from known senders."
"Other users have complained on social media that "all the spam is going directly to my inbox" and that Gmail's filters seem "suddenly completely busted." "We are actively working to resolve the issue," Google said. "As always, we encourage users to follow standard best practices when engaging with messages from unknown senders." TechCrunch has reached out to Google for additional comment."
