How can I verify that an email I received for purchasing an item through Yahoo Finance! is legitimate?
-
I am buying a car from an individual in another state. He said he wants to it through Yahoo Finance!. The email I received (supposedly from [email protected]) says that I have to go to a Western Union office with the cash and have a wired to an agent in NY. There are no phone numbers in the email, and the link for asking questions does not work. There is a Yahoo Finance Invoice Transaction ID in the email.

Answer:
Yahoo! Finance is a web site for Investors interested in the Stock Markets. Yahoo! Finance DOES NOT SELL CARS. By the way, yahoo-finance.us is not a domain afiliated in any way with Yahoo! I am a Yahoo! shareholder. I suggest you to report this to the FBI and Yahoo! Top 3 Answerer in Business & Finance. (Vote for me)
