Hi, Just 2 days ago, I receive and url address link to photo album flickr... and when I enter, they ask for user name and password exact the same like yahoo interface..when I enter the the login...there no page display.. then the next day, I cant login my YM,and all Yahoo related. And I receive and email from yahoo to my alternative email said that I'm changing password. now I cant retrieve back my password since they ask some question from my profile that I'm not updated since register,eg. my postcode number.where is secret question?not provide anymore.. really piss off..  Please help me how can I get back my Yahoo... |

Birthday date cant be changed after registration, and i think all the required info for retrieve password also cant be changed.... U have to remember back what country u used to register.... |

Thats why I'm confuse too..it just show my id and said my new password takes time to activate..not state any password. I just I dont remember my old postcode,since they just ask birth date and my postcode. Last time I dont remember my password,they just ask secret question only. |

Postcode isnt something u would easily forget... U just have to find out postcode then... U cant do anything else if u dont remember, except create new ID |

That is why no one recommend to use the link rather than just type in the url to be safe

It is not only a Con, It has a proper term for it. Phishing.  It is comment nowadays, worst still if you are an avid fan of Online-Banking. Being Careful save the day. Cheers! |
