Posts Tagged ‘Yahoo Email’

I sent an email to a friend this morning and I had to read one of those distorted character strings in a box to validate that it was me sending the stuff. I would be upset if someone is using my account to bombard my friends with junkmail.

I received an email from mailer at yahoo. Apparently my email address is being used by someone to send spam. The email noted that a firewall had detected my email as spam. The address it was sent to is unknown to me. Please help!

Several months ago I started getting “Nigerian scam” emails e.g. “I’m a prince from oogaboogastan and I need to send my 10 million dollars in diamonds to a trusted source. Please contact me with checking account number, social security number and a small deposit….” Who the heck falls for this? Anyhow… I keep marking them as spam but they keep coming from a different email each time. I’m about ready to switch my email to google just to stop the constant barrage of crap. Any way to make it stop?
