Who's claimed their free Yahoo! birthday gift?

its not a con as some say i got my email last week filled it in and i got my tshirt today not to sure about the colour but its free so im not complaining

Hey guys

Yahoo Answers staff has confirmed the yahoo birthday emails are legit yet only apply to yahoo answers uk to celebrate the first birthday of yahoo answers uk.

Please note this does not apply to yahoo answers usa to avoid confusion which occurs around December.

The emails are legit and users should apply all details required to claim the free gift.

More details can be found at

Thank you for understanding

While this is probably NOT a con -- it IS outdated. The first birthday for Yahoo Answers was on December 13, 2006 -- over six months ago. We DID get emails to sign up for prizes. I signed up -- and as a Level 6 user, finally got a Yahoo Answers coffee mug as a prize.

So, while they MAY do this again in November/December of 2007, I don't think that they are sending out the emails THIS early! Can you post the email or the link to the blog, please?

Hey everyone,

Apparently it's real, Yahoo posted a blog thingy to confirm it, I'm still waiting for my E.Mail, maybe I only qualify fur a key ring as I huv only been on the site fur a wee while!!

hi i havent had one but i would be wary if i was you.i got an email last week telling me i.d won £1,000,000 on the lottery i kept them going for a few days and then went to the police .so be wary of emails that tell you have won something or giving you free gifts .mind you it could be the real thing contact yahoo.

I have received this email and looked up the site. Here it is for anyone who doubts the offer is genuine. http://uk.blog.360.yahoo.com/blog-qt1kkp

A free birthday gift?

I claimed mine.

And for those saying its a con, why is yahoo saying its real?

Its for those in the UK. I'm guessing its mainly Americans who don't know about this and posting?

I did but I doubt we will really get anything. It was for a t shirt.....I wont hold my breath.

For those who didnt get an email, I think its for those on level 4 and above...not that it will do us any good if it doesnt come
