How do I stop spam from yahoo chat?

Do you think yahoo would stop the chat spambots if everyone, for one day, refused to use yahoo chat?

  • Yahoo has continued to allow chatspam to propagate, despite their claims to combat spam. Spam was the main reason I abandoned Yahoo email. Because Yahoo simply couldn't prevent hundreds of spam messages from coming through. And now the same thing is unfortunately happening to Yahoo chat. I will soon grow so weary of chatbots spamming me with porn that I will stop using Yahoo chat unless they can do something about it.

  • Answer:

    That is a good suggestion. I got rid of Yahoo! Mail beta because of the chat feature automatically loading. They asked me why I was going back to the old format and I told them. Reporting this concern to them doesn't seem to have any affect at all. Getting a worldwide boycott for a day would be extraordinarily difficult, though. My brother switched to hotmail due to the spam frequency with Yahoo! mail and he hasn't had any complaints.

i quit using it 2 years ago because of that problem. i think they need to do something about it. you should try to do a yahoo answers petition. just sa what the problem is in polls and surveys and ask people to leave their user name. maybe that would get yahoos attention
