• Answer:

  Definitely spam! That is quite clearly a made up Yahoo username. If you have a look at any email you have received from Yahoo, you will notice the difference in the email address. This email address is .'[email protected]', take a look at this example of an email I received from Yahoo Answers, this is the email ad it came from: [email protected]. Notice the difference?..... Don't take note of the email....it is spam, scam and whatever else! Be well ;)
