So I didn't even open any link or the actual pdf itself.How do I Stop Sharing Files on Google Drive? So if I open up the iOS Google Drive app, on the Home tab/screen, the shared PDF is displayed. By the way if I do open my Google Drive, the file is definitely present and shows up on the list. Along with JPEG.Īlso these are not links, they are actual documents. So even if there is malware, it won't do much damage as I can just purge it. Only my burner cell phone which is an iPhone. I completely understand and as mentioned, I am not opening them up in my computer, work laptop, etc.
txt files are safe, almost every other file can hide attack vectors. However haven't you learnt to not open files sent from another sender? PDF files aren't safe, only pure. So it doesn't sound like they're putting things in your actual drive. Here's an online post for reference/example:Īnyone can share files with you, but unless you open the link they won't be in your drive. Can I prevent strangers from sharing documents with me? Where they need my permission? Let's say John Do has shared "adult themed file.pdf" with you and its on my account automatically. Is there any way to completely avoid this or what not? I could delete my GMail account tied to this Google Drive, but that means I have to change my email ID with the respective accounts that it is tied to. I hope there's no malware in it, but hence using iOS device. I have been using my iphone to carry out the steps. Only thing I can do is report it as abuse and delete the PDFs on my Google Drive account/App. Stupid Google won't even give me the option to block these email IDs. The email addresses are all of third world origin and it is really annoying. On my iPhone, it says so and so has shared this document (PDF) with you. One of my main emails that I use, lately I've been receiving notifications where adult themed PDFs are being shared to my Google Drive account that is related to this email address.
