Anyone else get an odd email from YA?
I threw it my SPAM
but it basically thanked me for contributing to YA and
wanted me to go to links and I thought this wasn't right.

How to tell if it's from Yahoo
1 - ALL emails regarding your account will be from an @cc.yahoo-inc.com address, NEVER @yahoo.com or anything else
2 - ALL emails from Yahoo 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.
