If your Gmail inbox has suddenly become strangely cluttered and you're having trouble finding important emails, don't panic. You're not alone. Many Gmail users worldwide are currently experiencing a technical glitch.

In fact, Gmail's automatic spam filters are not working correctly. Promotional emails, offer messages, and non-essential updates are landing directly in the Primary Inbox. Some emails are also displaying a warning that Gmail hasn't properly scanned the message for spam or viruses.

Strange Warning on Emails
Many users are seeing a note when opening emails that reads, "Be careful with this message, Gmail couldn't scan it properly." This is causing concern, but Google has clarified that this warning is due to a system malfunction and doesn't necessarily mean the email is malicious.

Complaints of Delayed Emails
The impact of this glitch isn't limited to the inbox. Many people have reported receiving emails late. This is particularly affecting users who rely on OTPs or Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) for logins. Verification codes are sometimes not arriving on time, causing problems with account access.

What did Google say?
Google has acknowledged the problem. The company has stated that it is working to fix the glitch. Google advises users to avoid unfamiliar emails, suspicious links, and attachments until the system is fully restored.

What should users do now?
Currently, Google hasn't specified when the problem will be completely resolved. Therefore, it's best to:
Check your Spam folder regularly.
Keep an eye on your inbox for important emails.
Avoid clicking on any unfamiliar links.
This issue appears to be temporary, but taking a few precautions can help you avoid any major problems.
