UPDATE (11/9)
It looks like that the leaked passwords were the result of several years of phishing and scamming GMail accounts, so it wasn't a hard breach (thank goodness!).

I apologize for causing any trouble I may did to you guys. It wasn't my intention to give the alarm like this; I hope you won't hold it against me.


ORIGINAL POST (ignore this if you want)
Maybe several members of WipeoutZone already know this, but for those who aren't aware yet, 5 million of passwords from GMail were leaked in a Russian forum. It's said that over the half of them have a valid password, so anyone can have access to any GMail account that is published there.

A friend of mine recommended me this page so you can check if your account, or accounts, are compromised:

If you get an error 502, don't worry; the servers are likely to be overloaded.

If you're safe, then good news; if not, better hurry. Nevertheless, I'd change the passwords anyway just in case (like I just did).
So guys, be safe and hopefully your Google accounts are still healthy.

PS: I swear the link I put here is completely safe, but if you still mistrust it, then just change your passwords directly.
