2023-03-24T07:34:08+00:00 From everything you've reported so far I'm pretty sure it's a bug and not hacking. However I'd still read through the Hacking resource I provided you so you're fully educated and prepared because we see a lot of account hijackings lately where they change user name, password and security information in the MS Account which makes it unrecoverable.

After i logged out the chrome session from my phone, my gmail on edge was logged out, so it definitely the edge browser im using was what gmail has detected, Logged it in back and its reflected as Chrome.
So it could have been the enhanced safe browsing causing this?
I did just turned it on couple of days ago. I'll try and disable it and see if there's any changes. -
