Yahoo!, billing

“Hello everybody.

I have 2 free Yahoo! accounts and I have received billing information on consecutive days from Yahoo!. asking for credit card numbers with pin #'S Looks very real...but my account is with Yahoo! not Yahoo!. The yahoo is in bold red on bot cases, but the one I suspect is bogus has a period after it. I am also suspicious because they are both free accounts and they are asking for credit card #'s and pin #'s.

They are also saying my account will be deactivated in 5 days if I don't forward the info. What ever happened to a month's notice?

When I clicked on the link to give them info this morning, the page can not be found. I guess the cyber cops are catching up with them.

Anyone seen this?”

“I haven't seen it, but I've heard about things like it.


You could file a complaint with the FTC at

Or... simply forward the email (with full header info) to UCE@FTC.GOV”

“That sounds like a scam. Report it immediately.”

“This time it is my e-bay account. Only thing is, I don't believe I have ever had an e-bay account. They are asking for SS# credit card # and the numbers on the back of the credit cards.....

What's really sad is that someone will think it's real and it will really cost them....”
