- maxerickson 14y agoYeah, one of the Gmail account recovery mechanisms is some process involving another email address.
- moreati 14y agoAIUI the .mac account was the backup email address of the Gmail account. So 1. The attacker compromised the .mac account. 2. The attacker used the I forgot my password feature of Gmail - to get an account reset email for the gmail account sent to the .mac account.
