I was using firefox and looked at an alternative health site in another tab when I had that particular gmail account open.
The account was used for 7 hours to send out spam email to random addresses.
Unfortunately for the account hijackers I was notified by the fact I didn't receive a standard daily email on my phone in the morning and so when I couldn't log in recovered my account.
I know they were spamming because I found lots of junk in the sent folder, and gmail lists the IP addresses that last used your account.
There weren't any contacts for them to spam apart from some old agencies that I hadn't removed from the contacts list.
