I Have An Email From Yahoo Telling Me My Acct Will Shut Down Today If I Dont Upgrade

Got an email from yahoo saying my mailbox is full and my account will be deactivated if I do not upgrade!!!?

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 sender’s name in your Inbox and when you hover over the Y with your mouse it will say “This is a verified message from Yahoo!”
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’ or ‘validate’ or ‘update’ or ‘upgrade’ your account.
5 - Yahoo mail has 1TB of storage space. If you were anywhere near the limit you would not be asked to validate your mail. You would be told to delete old mail to free up space. Yahoo has even said that NO user of Yahoo Mail has ever come close to the 1TB limit

"The company said that no user of the free version of Yahoo Mail has ever filled up 1 terabyte of space."

Mark as Spam > Report a Phishing Scam so it gets reported to Yahoo and they can shut down that account

What happens to emails sent to a terminated Yahoo email address? Does the sender get any notification?

The SMTP standard (think of this as the way that mail servers talk to each other) has an explicit error code for User Not Found and this is the 550 error. A correctly configured mail server will send this response code to the sending server (your email address) and it will ususually have the subject of Undelivered: and your subject line.This is your way of knowing that the account is no longer accepting emails and to find an alternate way of communicating with the person.To echo some of the other statements:Yes Yahoo knows that you sent a messageYes Yahoo logs the messageYes the sender gets a notification

Can someone confirm that yahoo email is down? ETA for fix?

mine's down. ever since they plugged the "newer" beta version a few days ago things have been sucky

UPDATE
According to the "official" misinformation from yahoo, the servers have crashed, er, rather, they're "improving" service for us now... OK

The "please check back in several hours" is the give away that failure has occurred...

This is of course in an on going effort by yahoo to provide the best mails service possible! Someone at yahoo mail needs to figure out that NO mail is not good and certainly NOT the BEST mail...

I just found out today we're all just one bad adobe/flash update away from crashing the entire web...
YIKES!

I received an e-mail on my Yahoo account from this address: "Y! Mail box..." saying that the free usage for my Yahoo account is about to expire and that I need to extend it, and it asked me to click on a link. Is this a scam?

I don't know my recovery email. I need to recover my Yahoo mail. What should I do?

If you have provided a mobile number then you will get a password on it. If you have not given any alternative email or password then also there is third way of recovering your password by answering your security question. While attmpting to login don't try a new system. In such cases where you don't even remember password login from a new IP address makes the server suspicious and may turn down your request taking you as fraudster. Therefore use your regular device (smartphone/laptop/desktop) which you always use for accessing your yahoo email to login. More than this I can't tell as I myself have gmail id. Whatever options I told just now are the normal options given by all service providers for email recovery
