Account Verification !
So... I've been using Yahoo! for years and I've got some communications from them. But this one is not from them. First of all, it was not shown as a valid Yahoo! email (they show a little icon for them in your list of emails, if the icon is missing, that's a scam.)
But it's a funny email...
The guy is asking for my name, password, date of birth, occupation, and country of residence. The truth is that Yahoo! asks you for a second email address were to send a new password is you mess up or forget your current password. If you have a cell phone, they can also text message you. However, they will never ask you for your current password. Okay... but that part is not really funny!
Look at the Subject of this email:
Account Verification !
First of all, there is a space before the exclamation point. But then, the email starts with:
Dear Valid User,
Then it goes on saying that you need to verify your account. If I'm valid, why would I need to do such a thing?!
Oh! One more, the footer says this:
Intellectual Property Rights Policy
Just sounds funny to me. Yahoo! has such a link, but it says IP Policy instead.
