I figure it happened in a way you completely didn't think of: Wordpress Any web site using third party services, be they authentication services, advertising services, or whatever, is a potential platform for MITM snooping. I pick on Wordpress because it is notorious for being frequently and widely vulnerable to compromise. So I ask: have you used your Google account to authenticate yourself with any services other than Google? If so then that's probably how it happened. -- Rich P.
