Yahoo E-mail account cancelled message?
 
Any of you guys get this in your Yahoo inbox, it smells fishy to me becasue there is a readme.zip file attached. Is it still fake?

Dear Yahoo Member,

Your e-mail account was used to send a huge amount of unsolicited spam messages during the recent week. If you could please take 5-10 minutes out of your online experience and confirm the attached document so you will not run into any future problems with the online service.

If you choose to ignore our request, you leave us no choice but to cancel your membership.

Virtually yours,
The Yahoo Support Team

I have been getting those messages at my Anabolex email. Definately some sort of virus/scam.

Yes you really want to open that. :winkwink:

Even if you did open it Yahoo has anti-virus built in and prevents it from being opened.

kernelpanic 06-14-2005 03:55 PM
