Masyadong giveaway naman itong manloloko na ito. Mukhang pinoy (or pinay?) defrauder or scammer, hehehe.

**renzo_d10** · October 11th, 2009 01:09 PM

Yup. From the email address itself you could determine if it's a scam or not. ;)

**ooba99** · October 11th, 2009 04:27 PM

Yahoo! always uses this trademark name in all communications and does not drop the exclamation point (!) after their name Yahoo. So if the supposed "official" communication is from Yahoo! but without the exclamation point, esep-esep ka na.... it's a fake.

it was posted here for the knowledge of others and to warn (us) for our benefit din naman.

the last yahoo scam was the so-called mail from yahoo! president telling me that yahoo has reached the maximum number of registered users. then you have to give your complete information including your password. the mail said that if you reply with the said information your account will be saved from the account clearing they will made.

uggh this fools

**Lucius** · October 11th, 2009 07:27 PM

Siguro naman by just one look one can identify if it's legit or not.

Maybe the sender was just doing a prank

**renzo_d10** · October 11th, 2009 09:10 PM

Ang latest pinaupdate lang ng sakin ng Yahoo! is yung security questions. And, that's after me signing in, isang page yon. Di siya sinend through email. T

After answering such, nagsend saakin ang yahoo! ng email confirming such actions that I`ve made. ;)

Pansinin mo yung email add. Halatang legitimate unlike the one you've posted. Yan yung email na sinend ng Yahoo! sakin after doing such changes.
