ɹəuəllıʍ ʇɐb Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 Still there today.I got a reply from Yahoo, saying that they cannot take any action unless I send the full Internet headers of the received message.I tried to explain to them that forum private messages do not carry Internet headers, but they insisted that they still need them...Doing a Google search on the email address, I found that several other forums have been hit as well with the same PM scam, e.g. the Lavasoft forum.
