Is This Message Truely From Yahoo? by Funjosh(m): 4:35am On Jun 04, 2015

Disregard the email quick and don't attempt to click any link as it is very dangerous. It is phishing scam. All they want from you is for you to click on the link so that the culprit will be able to access your personal information.

Phishing scams are typically fraudulent email messages appearing to come from legitimate enterprises (e.g., your university, your Internet service provider, your bank). These messages usually direct you to a spoofed website or otherwise get you to divulge private information (e.g., passphrase, credit card, or other account updates). The perpetrators then use this private information to commit identity theft.

At times the perpetrator continuing sending you the same message with the hope of you falling into their trap some day...always delete the message anytime you receive it sir.
