It is a scam. Scammers are just trying to get your personal information. NEVER reply to ANY form asking for information like this.

That's strange because according to your profile, you've only asked one question, and answered none...So what illegal attempts possibly were made?

It is a known Scam and should be deleted and not replied to Have a nice weekend. RóGéR

Ignore the warning because it is a scam. Take a look at how it was written--very amateurish--with improper punctuation and capitalization. I have received the same warning several times, yet my Yahoo! account is still working. Ignore it. Yahoo! will never ask for your password or personal information publicized like that. Note: I can only suppose that the person giving me a thumb's down has never read the official letter Yahoo! had publicized some months ago about this scam. Pity . . .
