Last week, I received forwarded mail from my friend’s friend announcing “Yahoo is closing accountsâ€. I don’t know well whether it is the true announcement or not. Take a look at the message below I got.
Dear YAHOO User,
Because of the sudden rush of people signing up to YAHOO, it has come to our attention that we are vastly running out of resources. So, within a month’s time, anyone who does not receive this email with the exact subject heading, will be deleted off our server. Please forward this email so that we know you are still using this account.
We want to find out which users are actually using their YAHOO accounts. So if you are using your account, please pass this e-mail to every YAHOO user that you can and IF YOU DO NOT PASS this letter to anyone we will delete your account.
From Mr. ALLEN SMITH; YAHOO Admin. Dept.
Our YAHOO system is getting to crowded!! We need you to forward this to at least 20 people. I know this seems like a large number, but we need to find out who is really using their account. If you do not send this to at least 10 YAHOO members, we will delete your account. Sorry for this inconvenience.
that’s not likely truth. The yahoo corporation do not do some thing like multilevel spreading of words.. be carefull.. I don’t know if they have some way to extract the email address for spam purpose.
To me,I don’t believed that it is true. It maybe spam mail as well. Yahoo is giant company, so they will not do like this. Because they have many competitors.
You are right. This is just a scam. I’ve received countless number of such emails before. Just ignore it.
u r right. I have some problems for received mails too
Me too, email spam is hitting my email. I am feeling tired of deleting them from my mail box.
we should move to Gmail…. it is another choice
With this regard, it could be true while all yahoo users got any warning statement from yahoo adminitrator.
Anyway, yahoo won’t do as informed. Yahoo is a giant one. Yahoo will do world lives better not disturb.
Billions yahoo users will cry when it come true.
I wish all never cry herewith.
One yahoo user
