Warning About Yahoo Email Scams and Fraud
I don’t know how many times did I already posted here about yahoo email scams and frauds. I guess, I will do it a million times just to warn the people especially to those who received such spam or fraud mails in their inbox. Please immediately put this kind of mail in your spam folder to prevent them from sending again. Imagine I have as of now in my spam folder 673 spam mails. Most of these mails are telling me that I won millions in lottery or draws in different companies but how can I win when I myself did not enter it. Sometimes these spam mails are very annoying. It is just taking my time to delete them or put them in my spam foder. I hope I don’t get some wrinkles in my face from these kind of mails or else I need to find the best eye cream for wrinkles.
People out there, never ever believed these kind of mails. Don’t be blinded by those millions of winnings especially if you received spam mails on lottery winnings. Again never ever give your personal data and information especially if you don’t know these people. Sometimes even the friends we trusted are betraying us, how much more with these people that we don’t know and have not met yet. They just want to fool you and want to get money from you.
As I tried to hit reply to one of the spam mail that I received yesterday, this email address came out, customerdatabase87@msn.com when in fact, if you have to look closer on the sample mail below it is coming from email add customer.service@yahoo.com
