Also, if you had a security key ($17.99 on Amazon) and always used it to login to Gmail/Gdocs... You would't get phished as above. 
When you buy my book, Amazon recommends a security key. If you'll buy one item, buy the key. We'll make sure you can read the book.

Here's a step by step easy guide to installing a security key on Gmail. Best protection against phishing like above. https://techsolidarity.org/resources/security_key_gmail.htm …
Folks, please RT first tweet in this thread to warn people. Once/when I know remediation steps for people who got compromised, I'll update.
This may be spreading through asking authorizing apps. DO NOT AUTHORIZE APPS WITHOUT CHECKING. Go here and check. https://myaccount.google.com/permissions

It's an OAuth worm. It tricks you to authorize a phony app. Google doesn't ask for relogin!
If infected, do this:https://twitter.com/lorenzoFB/status/859860381522636801 …
zeynep tufekci added,
Google has revoked the app; this won't spread anymore. I will update this thread if there is anything else to do.
Sorry, Google asking you to relogin wouldn't save you here. It's the authorization. But this is a good time to talk about authorization.
Go here: http://myaccount.google.com/permissions Look at every app you authorized. Check their authorizations. Think if you really want to authorize it.
If you don't recognize the app, revoke it. If you later realize you wanted it, you can reauthorize it. Authorizing means giving access.
Also Twitter. Go & revoke permissions for anything you don't recognize. Also, think twice before giving permission. https://twitter.com/settings/applications …
What's really bad is how difficult it is to revoke Twitter permissions for an iOS app.
