This may be nothing but I got an email in my spam folder from "Yahoo! Account Services Verification" which instructed as follows:

Due to the congestion in our Yahoo! servers,there would be removal of all unused Yahoo! Accounts.You will have to confirm if your E-mail is still active by filling out your login info below after clicking the reply button, or your account will be suspended within 24 hours for security reasons.

Yahoo should automatically know about dormant accounts. Also the intro paragraph has a glaring typo: "...would be" which should be "will be" removed ... Seems little but very unprofessional.

Anyone else get this? I ignored it so far & if I get cut off I can re-register. Not sure at all whether this is legit.

Those who are more knowledgeable: pls don't flame ...
 
This is very suspicious. Yahoo didn't send me anything. If it was asking for this information from you, then it should have included everyone. Yahoo would have sent out a mass email to some 30 million accounts. I think this is bunk. This was probably sent to you by an infiltrator. The enemies of Satan will try anything they can to get you to submit, they always use FEAR to get to someone, remember it's their most formidable tool.   First of all this would have been very unprofessional of Yahoo in the first place, it's awefully rude/inappropriate for a big corporation to use such language, especially when they are such big competitor's with Google. It's irrational.    Years ago, there was spam being sent out by Amsouth Bank well- someone Posing as Amsouth, in the emails they were saying: "We recently updated our system to better serve you, and to provide you with tighter security. In order to make this transition easier we need to verify some information from you, this information will only take a minute.   Please verify the following: Your 16 Digit Debit Card Number; Your PIN Number; The last Three number on the back of Your Card; Full Name and Date of Birth. Thank You for you time today and your Patience during this transition."
The identity thieves got some 1000+ idiots to respond with all there personal information, they deserved to have there money stolen, and their identity. The Reason it worked is because they had made a fraudulent email using the REAL Amsouth Bank logo, and provided people with the Real customer service number, so all those people would think it was legit, they would call first and when the familiar Amsouth customer service announcement started they would say: "Humm, this must be real" and hang up.   The bank later sent out a mass email stating: "We would NEVER ask you for your personal information, we already have it, your gave us all this when you signed up".   By the way Most yahoo accounts like google, will delete the account after one year of inactivity, But when you log in you start the day counter back to zero. Hope this helps. Thank you for alerting the group of this issue. :)

This is what is known as a 'phishing' attempt. DO NOT REPLY TO ANY OF IT!
Everyone who is not 100% familiar with the word 'phishing' needs to read this article:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phishing

This sort of crap goes on all of the time. In addition, for security reasons, everyone should have more than one e-mail account. The account you use publicly, like to post here and in other e-groups, forums and so forth, should NEVER be used for anything personal. I strongly suggest having a personal e-mail which no one knows anything about, does not belong to any groups, etc., for your own personal business.

If that was really from yahoo, they would make sure it does not end up in your SPAM folder. Simple logic.
NEVER fill out ANY form like this. If you would be required to do this, you wouldn't be able to log in into your mail and would be transferred to the log in page. I don't trust this at all.

My respect,

Hail Satan
Hail my Guardian

To put this simply and for people who might find the wikipedia article difficult to understand, 'phishing' is done for criminal purposes. Phishing e-mails try to look as legitimate as possible, designed just like the company they are pretending to be. Also, they use the URL of the company in a link. Always run your cursor over the link and see if it is the same link as what appears in the lower right of your screen [from the cursor]. Often the dot.com domain name will be totally something else, from what they give you in the link. For example- 'Yahoo.com' right there to click on, when you run your cursor over it, the information the cursor is getting is entirely something different and this reveals 100% fraud.

This article is easier to understand:

What is Phishing?
Phishing is a form of fraud designed to steal your identity. It works by using false pretenses to get you to disclose sensitive personal information, such as credit and debit card numbers, account passwords, or Social Security numbers.

One of the most common phishing scams involves sending a fraudulent email that claims to be from a well-known company. Phishing can also be carried out in person, over the phone, through fraudulent pop-up windows, and websites.

1.A fraudster will start out sending thousands, even millions, of emails to different mail accounts disguised as messages from a well-known company. The typical phishing email will contain a concocted story designed to lure you into taking an action such as clicking a link or button in the email or calling a phone number.

2.In the email, there will be links or buttons that take you to a fraudulent website.

3.The fraudulent website will also mimic the appearance of a popular website or company. The scam site will ask for personal information, such as your credit card number, Social Security number, or account password.
You think you’re giving information to a trusted company when, in fact, you’re supplying it to a criminal.

How to spot a phishing email.
There are many telltale signs of a fraudulent email.

1.Sender's Email Address. To give you a false sense of security, the “From” line may include an official-looking email address that may actually be copied from a genuine one. The email address can easily be altered – it’s not an indication of the validity of any email communication.

2.Generic Email Greeting. A typical phishing email will have a generic greeting, such as “Dear User.”

3.False Sense of Urgency. Most phishing emails try to deceive you with the threat that your account will be in jeopardy if it’s not updated right away. An email that urgently requests you to supply sensitive personal information is typically fraudulent.

4.Fake Links. Many phishing emails have a link that looks valid, but sends you to a fraudulent site that may or may not have an URL different from the link. Always check where a link is going before you click. Move your mouse over the URL in the email and look at the URL in the browser. As always, if it looks suspicious, don't click it.

5.Attachments. Similar to fake links, attachments can be used in phishing emails and are dangerous. Never click on an attachment. It could cause you to download spyware or a virus.

Remember, when it comes to phishing, you are in control. To protect your personal financial information, ignore the requests in the email.

•Never provide any information.
•Never click on any link that seems suspicious.

Thanks Maxine & Pyramid Star. I think I know who the kike infiltrator that sent the damn thing is. I didn't want to be a nuisance with off-topic rubbish but thought everyone should be alerted just in case.

personal information, we already have it, your gave us all this when you signed
up".


By the way Most yahoo accounts like google, will delete the account after one
year of inactivity, But when you log in you start the day counter back to zero.
Hope this helps. Thank you for alerting the group of this issue. :)

Subject: [JoyofSatan666] Possible ID theft attempt from "Yahoo mail" ...

 
This may be nothing but I got an email in my spam folder from "Yahoo! Account
Services Verification" which instructed as follows:

Due to the congestion in our Yahoo! servers,there would be removal of all unused
Yahoo! Accounts.You will have to confirm if your E-mail is still active by
filling out your login info below after clicking the reply button, or your
account will be suspended within 24 hours for security reasons.
.
Your Personal Information:

User Name:................. (example@...)

Password: ......................

Date of Birth:.........................

Country:.................................

After updating your account information, your account will not be interrupted
and will continue to work as normal.Thanks for your attention to this request.
We apologize for any inconvenience.

Warning !!! Account owners who refuses to reply with his or her information
within one week or receiving this warning will lose his or her account
permanently.

Information Required

Yahoo! ID :

Password:

Date of Birth

Use this entire information every time you sign in to Yahoo!

======================

Yahoo should automatically know about dormant accounts. Also the intro paragraph
has a glaring typo: "...would be" which should be "will be" removed ... Seems
little but very unprofessional.

Anyone else get this? I ignored it so far & if I get cut off I can re-register.
Not sure at all whether this is legit.

Those who are more knowledgeable: pls don't flame ...

This is what is known as a 'phishing' attempt. DO NOT REPLY TO ANY OF IT!
Everyone who is not 100% familiar with the word 'phishing' needs to read this article:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phishing

This sort of crap goes on all of the time. In addition, for security reasons, everyone should have more than one e-mail account. The account you use publicly, like to post here and in other e-groups, forums and so forth, should NEVER be used for anything personal. I strongly suggest having a personal e-mail which no one knows anything about, does not belong to any groups, etc., for your own personal business.

This is very suspicious. Yahoo didn't send me anything. If it was asking
for this information from you, then it should have included everyone. Yahoo
would have sent out a mass email to some 30 million accounts. I think this is
bunk. This was probably sent to you by an infiltrator. The enemies of Satan will
try anything they can to get you to submit, they always use FEAR to get to
someone, remember it's their most formidable tool.


First of all this would have been very unprofessional of Yahoo in the first
place, it's awefully rude/inappropriate for a big corporation to use such
language, especially when they are such big competitor's with Google. It's
irrational.Â


Years ago, there was spam being sent out by Amsouth Bank well- someone Posing as
Amsouth, in the emails they were saying: "We recently updated our system to
better serve you, and to provide you with tighter security. In order to make
this transition easier we need to verify some information from you, this
information will only take a minute.


Please verify the following: Your 16 Digit Debit Card Number; Your PIN Number;
The last Three number on the back of Your Card; Full Name and Date of Birth.
Thank You for you time today and your Patience during this transition."


The identity thieves got some 1000+ idiots to respond with all there personal
information, they deserved to have there money stolen, and their identity. The
Reason it worked is because they had made a fraudulent email using the REAL
Amsouth Bank logo, and provided people with the Real customer service number, so
all those people would think it was legit, they would call first and when the
familiar Amsouth customer service announcement started they would say: "Humm,
this must be real" and hang up.


The bank later sent out a mass email stating: "We would NEVER ask you for your
personal information, we already have it, your gave us all this when you signed
up".


By the way Most yahoo accounts like google, will delete the account after one
year of inactivity, But when you log in you start the day counter back to zero.

Don't mess with it! It's spam, and it's a phishing attempt to steal your user/pass.

Delete it.

I've gotten them before, and they're an obvious phishing attempt.

The phishing expedition continues ... Several of these have showed up in my Spam folder lately. Nothing to worry about: it's likely just an infiltrator who who has the time to waste on this nonsense rather than holding down a job. Don't even bothering opening it; just delete.

It's definitely an ID theft attempt. Because first of all Yahoo does not have a congestion problem and secondly if it was really sent by Yahoo it would have been delivered to your inbox not spam folder. Yahoo does not need anybodies personal details, and even if they did they already have it, when you created your account so they don't need to ask you for it again. Just like they already know have your password.
