Observe this image very carefully.
Suppose your friend, family members or co-worker using your gmail accounts for a little time with your trust, but if he/she/they do this two steps which takes time in seconds can hack your account forever. Then after if you changed your password or put some more security restrictions can not makes safe your account from them. In simple if these two steps can be done with your account then your account will be hacked for ever.
When any one who are using your gmail account go through you 'Settings' option, and after then he put his/her email id in 'Forwarding and POP/IMAP' page in option 'New forwarding email address', then your account is hacked fully, and you won't be able to know about this, because google or gmail just send a single notification for this, and when that notification is deleted by victim then what you can do?? Answer is nothing, because you would never know about this.
But after happening this with your accounts, a copy of every email was sent to victim emails too.
How to secure accounts from these type of peoples?
Simply Open your Gmail account and make Login in to your account, go through settings tab and then through Forwarding and POP/IMAP and make sure that field for adding new forwarding email address should be empty. If you found some one's email in that fields means that email owning person is your victim or may say like hacker.
