Your email account will be shut down (Norton Scan)?
SCAM That's NOT from Yahoo, it's a phishing scam to hack your account 1 - ALL emails regarding your account will be from an @cc.yahoo-inc.com address, NEVER @yahoo.com or anything else 2 - ALL emails regarding your account will ALWAYS have a purple Y! logo to the left of the message in your Inbox 3 - ALL emails regarding your account will always address you by your name (i.e. Dear John, Dear Mary), never a generic greeting (Dear Customer, Dear Yahoo Account Holder, Dear Valid User, etc), your email address or no greeting at all 4 - Yahoo will NEVER ask for any personal details in an email and will never ask you to click on a link to ‘verify’ your account. The ONLY time you are asked for personal info is when you first set up your account 5 – Yahoo Mail has UNLIMITED storage so there is no way to exceed its limit as Yahoo has NO limits 6 - Yahoo does not delete accounts because of viruses. Mark as Spam so it gets reported to Yahoo and they can shut down that account

I didn't confirm my email on Instagram, and I can't receive a reset password via email. What do I do?
The account is lost. You must set up reliable channels for password recovery when the account is established, or you run the risk of forever losing access to the account.See: I'm not receiving the password reset email.If you mistyped your email address when signing up for your account, we're not able to give you access to this account. If you think you're experiencing a technical problem, please let us know.Since you have no proof it is your account, Instagram will not reset the password for you. This prevents people from stealing other accounts.When you make a new account, you should verify the email and link it to your Facebook account to prevent this from happening in the future.
I received this e-mail stating TERMINATION OF YOUR YAHOO WEBMAIL ACCOUNT?
Yahoo will not(usually) answer these questions presonally, but that email is a definite scam as Yahoo will never send you an email regarding anything about your account. So go ahead and mark it as spam and be wary of false emails.
Is this e-mail from account-security@cc.yahoo-inc.... asking for my password spam?
NEVER give anybody your password - that is almost guaranteed to be a "phishing" scam. The only thing you need to do to keep a Yahoo mail account active is to use it - log in once in a while (I don't know off the top what their time limit is, but it's quite long - on the order of months, I think).

I was sent an e-mail asking for my password. Did this actually come from a Yahoo base?
I got this "spam" on 6/7. Funny thing is I am still using my email. -- Forwarded Message ---- From: UPGRADE AT.NET
