Today I got this e-mail that quite shocking. It claims to be from Yahoo! message center and asking for all your yahoo account details.
Well if you receive the following e-mail, DO NOT reply to it, instead forward it to anyone you know just to avoid their account being hacked.
For those of you who are familiar with such scam, this might be easy to ignore but for others, it’s quite frighten when it claims that your account will be deleted.
Please put your friends e-mail addresses in BCC field instead of TO field. This will avoid their addresses being misused.
