Hi Guys. i have been getting this email(see below) that states Yahoo is closing down. is this true? i hope not

Dear YAHOO User,





Because of the sudden rush of people signing up to YAHOO, it has come to our attention that we are vastly running out of resources. So, within a month's time,anyone who does not receive this email with the exact subject heading,will be deleted off our server. Please forward this email so that we know you are still using this account.


We want to find out which users are actually using their YAHOO accounts. So if you are using your account, please pass this e-mail to every YAHOO user that you can and IF YOU DO NOT PASS this letter to anyone we will delete your account.





From Mr. ALLEN SMITH


YAHOO Admin. Dept.





Our YAHOO system is getting to crowded!! We need you to forward this to at least 20 people. I know this seems like a large number, but we need to find out who is really using their account. If you do not send t his to at least 10 YAHOO members, we will delete your account. Sorry for this inconvenience.


Sincerely, Director of YAHOO Services


BOB LOPEZHi Guys. i have been getting this email(see below) that states Yahoo is closing down. is this true? i hope not
Yahoo would never use a subscriber to do their dirty work. Anytime something has been wrong with my account, they email me (and only me) direct to find the solutionHi Guys. i have been getting this email(see below) that states Yahoo is closing down. is this true? i hope not
whoa big scam and spam ignore this one and delete it.
No one in my family have had such a email,


it looks like a spoof, do not click on any links, just delete it.
Its fake. Spam it.
i have heard that yahoo are buying a steak in myspace.
I would have thought that they would have addressed you as 'member' not user. Secondly one of us will have to find out who really is Bob Lopez.. Yahoo are connected to BT and if they go out of business the so will BT.
This is a stupid chain letter, ignore it, delete it and don't click anything. Yahoo Never tells people to forward emails, It's spam. They want to collect as many emails as they could to probably hack into accounts or just build up their spam addressbook. Also, Yahoo doesn't doo the big caps of YAHOO thing. That's corny. I understand your concern on this one, I love Yahoo.
scam just delete it
Its Spam!!!! I have a bridge I want to sell you for just $50.00 ....email me for details!!
Yes I am afraid it is! What will we do now?
This is utter rubbish.





Firstly yahoo is a multi billion dollar company, and have better ways of passing on information than childish chain letters demanding users do silly things and spam other users.





Secondly, if yahoo did go out of business, you would hear about it in the news...
This has to be a scam doesn't it.
spam
I had the same email 3 ysd ago and im still using my acout so do not worry its a wind up xx
It's a wind-up and one of those stale chain letters. Just replace the ';delete your yahoo account'; with ';you will be kissed in 4 days'; or ';you will lose all your money'; and you can see the format of a typical chain letter.


Why do people do those things? It's just weird.
Its a wind up !!.
That e-mail is about as genuine as your jewellery
smells funny to me. YAHOO?
I had a very similar message to this when I had an MSN account. It's just spam mail, trying to cause panic. Ignore it, and mark it as spam so that yahoo can deal with it :o)
H O A X !!!!!
