    First see if that was a real email from Yahoo or if it was a hacker.

    If they provided you a link to log into your acct, in the email..you just gave the hacker

    your password

    No one legit ever has you log into an acct from a link in an email

    Go here and change it to something else, immediately

    If you have a recreational singles account posting with Match.com you can remove it and try and see if you can do the same with Flicker! It might be that that is alls wrong!
