Is there any way to report email abuse if you get an email from a yahoo user?

I would just like to know because I havent been able to find a way to report email abuse from some very cruel Y!A users. Please tell me if there is a way.

Update:

oh looks like the abuser decided to stop in. Hello Sincerely

    Yes, there is a way to report it. You send an email to the customer care, and there is a form you fill out and copy and paste the email into it so they can track the user.

    Do not go into their profile and report their Q&A like Chair wizard suggested, reporting things erroneously will only affect your account under the new guidelines, unless they are offenses.

    Well he just wants to take you out, probably for a deep fried mars bar in batter. So he's a twunt. Report him, block him, get on with your life. Of course with all the replies here he's going to be busy for a while emailing abuse to a lot of people.

    Send your complaints to abuse@yahoo.com. It works. You can also block the person by going into Mail Options and clicking Block Email. That will keep that user's email (or anyone else's you don't wish to hear from) from reaching you. And the person will never find out unless you tell them.

    Maybe you should report that Email as spam. And also make sure that they're not on your contact list.

    I think you should write to the Yahoo service type of thing, and also do not allow e mails until you solve that annoying problem.

  • Joy hon, just don't read their emails and delete them whenever you recieve them and keep doing so until they quit for good.

    Remember they are just harmless though hurtful words on a screen and that they are the losers, not you.

    You can't report them in email but you can go to their profile and report their questions and answers :)
