I received this from administrator@yahoo.co.in It further said that ur profile record is out of date. What does it mean?

Hmm...looks like you havent used your yahoo account in a really long time
Posted by Evil Eye
@mrao nope. I check my mails once a week. It said that 'it has come to our attention that your profile records are out of date. Your yahoo a/c is near to end.'

Well. To me it seems like some prank. But the best solution is to reply them with message you received included, and then ask why.

@blayv i dont think administrator of yahoo will do a prank.
Posted by mrao
why dont you just try updating the profile??
Posted by Jake Blues
does it ask u for any details, passwords etc.? coz if it does its a SCAM!!

I didn't mean yahoo admin is making pranks, but that's a good 1! :-) :-] :-D lol!

@Nature
That's right. It's likely to be a scam.

You are too young to differentiate a spam or scam from a legitimate one?
Posted by blayv
Why wouldn't it be possible to be a spam? I got mail from lots of my friends with trojans. Of course they didn't send it, someone hacked their account. @manish Please forward me full e-mail. blayv@yahoo.co.uk And just like I said ask the admin. Also mrao's idea looks very reasonable.

Its just spam guys. I get this e-mail like 5-6 times each week. Dont click on any link in the e-mail and dont give any information to anyone.

@k theres an attachment also there in the e-mail. Should i open it?
Posted by k4m!k4ze
No, dont open it. Never open attachments unless you know that it's from someone you know.
Besides, i think when you click on download attachment, yahoo's antivirus scanner will automatically detect that there's a virus in the attachment and will not allow you to download it.

Looks to me like manish has been annoying the the female members over at yahoo too! And now they're shutting him down!
