There is a scam going around threatening to close accounts Yahoo if you do not send their email address and password?

I received an email supposedly from Yahoo, asking my e-mail ad-dress and password, threatening to close my account if I did not send these. It sounded like a scam. Am I wrong? Why would-Ya -.
Hoo need to ask me for that?

It's his suspect.

Why not ask about this in a support forum for Yahoo?

Or maybe in a support forum for anything that you use for email?

Firefox does not have same e-mail, so I wonder why you even asked all here?

  • Foxfire does not recognize my email address which is in thunderbird. Does take and how I going to foxfire if not?

    I downloaded Foxfire thinking that Thunderbird and Foxfire is the same. Am I wrong? Foxfire does not recognize my email address or password. How can I fix it?

    Firefox and Thunderbird are two software published by Mozilla, but they are completely different.

    Firefox is a web browser, visit Web sites.
    Thunderbird is an email client, send and receive emails.

    What do you mean with Firefox won't recognize my email address or password? Why do enter you your email address in Firefox?

  • Firefox is not saving one of my email addresses and the password (it's to save three of the four). He is not asking me if I want to save it, and there is no "Save" command under Tools. I have a Mac OS10.4.11.

    I have four accounts with btes.tv (served by WorldClient). Firefox asked if I wanted to save my password with three accounts, but he did not go with the fourth. I have re-made preferences/security/save passwords several times without success. I don ' t know what else to do.

    Save the name, and the password to connect to a server does not always work. For example it does not with Hotmail (live.com) because Hotmail uses JavaScript to generate the login form.

    Web sites may also use autocomplete = off to prevent Firefox to record the name and the password.

    You can remove autocomplete = off with a bookmarklet to register the name and the password of Firefox.

  • Why Thunderbird put "" around pieces of email addresses?

    email addresses are stored (visually) correctly in the address book, but when the peaks of Thunderbird them he often puts the first part of the address in quote so rengering the entire address invalid. It seems generally occurs when Thunderbird collects e-mails

    It usually indicates an unnecessary space before or at the address. I edit this contact and enter the address again to make sure that no space is there anywhere.

    It could be that the contact is correct in your personal book and there is an incorrect entry in the book collected when you tried to send them a message and typed wrong. Check all address books.

    Hi pdkbingo,

    It is more than likely that your email account which is at fault and not on your PC. It is quite easy to 'spoof' an email so it seems that if it came from your email address when, in reality, it comes from someone else. I suggest change you your email provider, so changing your email address. If you are using groups of public discussion, facebook, twitter "are not" visualize your email address. Unscrupulous people help software 'bots' trawl newsgroups etc. for email addresses. It's a way to get loads of spam. If you post an email address in a newsgroup etc. then type something like * address email is removed from the privacy *. Of course, you will need to enter your 'real' email address when registering for the discussion groups, facebook, twitter etc but if your email address is not visible there cannot be "hijacked" as you say.

  • Is there a way to get around this?

    Hello. I've been thinking for a while now, buy Mass Effect, a video game developed by Bioware around May 2008. However, just to be sure that my computer (Toshiba laptop) could run, I went to www.systemrequirementslab.com, who, in case you're not familiar with it, something of a 'diagnosis', which gives you a 'pass' or 'fail' on the way in which the game you want to play will run on your computer is running. Everything going on, but a single component, which has been the video card. I will put the exact wording below.

    Video card
    Minimum: NVIDIA GeForce 6 series (6800 GT or better), ATI X 1300 XT or better (X 1550, X 1600 Pro and HD2400 are below minimum system requirements)
    You have: ATI Radeon Graphics Processor (0x791F)
    Upgrade suggested: Unfortunately, your video card does not meet this requirement. Click here to see some recommendations.
    Features: Minimum attributes of your video card
    3D Yes Yes
    Hardware T & L Yes Yes
    Pixel Shader version 3.0 2.0
    Vertex Shader version 3.0 2.0

    It is an important component to the game and my computer is a laptop, I have not seen any way to work around this problem, because I can't buy a new video card and use it. (Not that I would say justice my portfolio with these antics.)

    However, I may or may not be getting a new computer before college, so if that happens, (I'm first indicative to assume that at the time when this new computer falls from heaven, that a new operating system is not available...) I wanted to ask you if, with the specifications on the right, I would be able to play it on Windows 7 ?

    If not, then I would ask if there is a way around this problem now ? For example, is there an upgrade or something of this nature that I'm able to get? ("If it's free, it's for me!")

    In addition, if he has not been heard, my OS is Windows Vista Home Premium SP1.

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    I don't think there is a solution to your video problem other than an update of the driver. If no update is available, then buy a desktop computer that I had is the only other option.

  • There's a scam of telemarketing targeting the user windows in New Zealand at the moment.

    The scam goes like this:

    The scammer calls the person (and I guess by the time difference and the thick accent Middle East they call from somewhere near the India) and claims to be a representative of microsoft. They then say that your computer has a virus very serious, and they need access to your computer and fix it. Then, they will guide you to the remote assistance tool and take manual control there. Thanks to this they access bank accounts and steal the money.

    I know at least two people who have fallen for her, which was my 86 year old grandfather. They have also tried to bring my 9 year-old brother to do so. These people would and do steal pensioners and children. I get a call at least two every three days. So far, the only thing I could do to them is put them on hold for 3 hours while I "tried to turn on my computer. They pointed out several times to the police and the agencies, antiscam in New Zealand, but it doesn't seem to do anything... What I'm asking is that there is nothing I can do about it? Anywhere I can report to MS?
