Before you send out something through Gmail, make sure to check if you have the right person in the recipient field -- trust us on this one. Google's email service has been having autocomplete issues, which people started noticing over the past few days. It seems to keep suggesting contacts you don't email that often instead of those you send digital missives to regularly. So, instead of suggesting Joe Coworker when you type "J" in the "To" field, you get Joe Shmoe, John Doe and some random J you drunkenly met at a party once in college. Obviously, you wouldn't want to send any of them the super secret work document you've been working on. Gmail announced on Twitter that it's investigating the issue, but until then, all you can do is to keep a close eye on who you're sending emails to.
We're aware of an issue with Gmail and auto-complete and are currently investigating. Apologies for any inconvenience.
