Is this another Yahoo email scam?
It's a scam. Noone legit will ask for your details. Delete and don't reply.
Reply:Scam!!!! That's a phishing email. Don't reply to the message and give out your personal information to total strangers or you'll risk losing your account to them. Remember that Y! doesn't send unsolicited emails to all its users, as the company already has that stored in its well-secured servers. Go report the message here: http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mail/ya...


Choose Fraud as the reason for the violation you're reporting on.





After that, spam it straight into oblivion without delay.
Reply:DO NOT reply. This is a phishing scam attempting to get you to give them all your personal info. It's not from Yahoo, just delete it and ignore it. Good luck and be careful.
