Title: Yahoo Mail?
Post by: Mr Skrunts on 10 July 2012, 07:10:52
Had an account from the day I started on the net, no major problems but just recently getting problems with some form of hacking/scamming.

Each mail seems to have one of my contacts in it as if I sent them the mail and some sort of message, but am getting about 20/30 attempts at a time

Any one know how to report this sort of problem to yahoo?


MAILER-DAEMON@yahoo.com <MAILER-DAEMON@yahoo.com>; (Failure Notice) is what shows on the mail/inbox

I've had that message before, bloody annoying. Haven't a clue what it means or how to sort it though

someone is using your email as a cover for spam.
It may be worth changing your password on the account

It happened to my daughter the other day on her account. Contacts in her address book received emails sent from her account offering cut price diet pills.
