We prevented the sign-in attempt in case this was a hijacker trying to access your account.

Messages like this are only sent if the password was correct, AFAIK. (Google sends the message in part as a warning and in part to explain that no, your password wasn't wrong, they just don't think it was actually you.)

Got one yesterday from Anhui China. I'm definitely not using any VPN services there
