Google has responded to rumours that it is closing down Gmail with a simple five-word statement. A screenshot claiming to be from an official Google announcement has been shared widely on social media platform X, stating that "As of August 1, 2024, Gmail will officially be sunsetted, marking the end of its service."
The post added: "This means that as of this date, Gmail will no longer support sending, receiving, or storing emails." It added: "We are reaching out to share an important update about Gmail. After years of connecting millions worldwide, enabling seamless communication, and fostering countless connections, the journey of Gmail is coming to a close."
This announcement has been viewed over a million times on X, and got many users worried. However, it is not true.

It seems to be a doctored version of a notice sent out last year about Gmail Basic HTML view being discontinued. The official Gmail account on Twitter/X indirectly confirmed that the claims are false, stating simply that "Gmail is here to stay."
Worried users took to X before the announcement from Google . One wrote: "Gmail going away is insane. I guess I'll have to host my own email server."
"Just got this, can someone at @Google explain what's going on with gmail? ", a second asked. And a third echoed: "Google shutting down Gmail?"
