That is messed up! makes u feel pretty good about having confidential billing and bank account information sent to an email...gotta love yahoo!

 

[SkinsFanLarry]

That makes no sense to me at all....:dunno:

 

[sportsmedjosh]

sounds like a possible scam to me, they have your old email address. So all the need to do is create a new email address tell you to login and change it and chances are you will change it to what your old email address was. This will give them your old credentials and can log and probably get bank/****** info on you.

It is probably a scam. Check it out yourself by logging into your acct. Then if your password works, contact ucstomer service and report the scam

Do not use a link from the suspected email

I'll be doing that, thanks!

And no, that's not even my ID on Yahoo.

 

[Shmear]

My account works just fine.

I'll be contacting costumer service now.

It is possible that someone just used your email as a back up when they registered that yahoo ID and it was done radomly or even they USED to have that email b4 you(@snotmail, I didn't know anyone used that anymore?) but following up and reporting it is the right thing to do so you don't have problems
