Re: [AMC-list] hey all you yahoo.com account holders

Scammers LOVE gmail more than yahoo. Why? Gmail (google) has dropped the 
ball on reporting scammers. Scammers know in the time window that it takes 
someone to notice (or people just delete offending email) the scammers have 
usually already done their work. At least yahoo while being prone to being 
hacked (I get 5-20 of them PER DAY) has a instant form one can fill out 
where it can shut them down. Windows Live is the best and instantly shuts 
down scammers. Gmail is the WORST, followed by Yahoo on shutting down 
scammers.

How bad is yahoo hacked accounts sending spam? So bad I have their 'report 
spam' link in my toolbar!!!!

Google or gmail could learn from that quick link (instead of making those 
who want to report spam jump thru hoops to do so) and do same for instant 
shutdown of those who abuse their systems. Just my 4.9 cents adjusted for 
Obamas sh*t economy.

bogus emails from legitimate email accounts every week and am getting tired
of it.  So will all of you with Yahoo accounts either drop their sorry butts
or at the very least change your passwords to something with at least eight
characters in it, that contains an uppercase and a lowercase letter, a
number AND a special character such as anything along the top row of your
keyboard!?  Do not, I repeat, do NOT make a password that is a common word
found in the dictionary.  Don't make your password, for example, fred123 or
hornet or javabc.

Yahoo accounts in particular are prone to getting hacked.  I really don't
know why people still use them and how they manage to stay in business.
It's horrible.

Please update your password RIGHT NOW.  "
