I think so. Its not yahoo. Avoid filling that form. They are trying to get your username and password.

Never input any password into a website that doent have the padlock sign where the website address is! So, don't even reply that mail, yahoo didn't send it!

They simply need your password mehn
Don't fall for this..

People still use yahoo?

That's what they call phishing email.. The web page you opened is not the real yahoo page.

Hackers at work run for your life.

Thank you all. I was scared with the mail, knowing fully well the implication if i loose my account

the picture you upload, the web address below is not from yahoo team. If you feel like filling the form I recommend you do research on yahoo team, about mail from yahoo verifying you upate your account, search for yahoo support email or help center then foward or copy the email send to you using a different email account and not your email.

Thank you all. your recommendations has been helpful. Please can anyone help me with the yahoo email contact or phone contact??

What do u mean by phishing

Phishing is the attempt to acquire sensitive information such as usernames, passwords, and credit card details (and sometimes, indirectly, money) by masquerading as a trustworthy entity in an electronic communication.

Example:

Download Gmail phishing page: http://askguyson.com/download-gmail-phishing-page/
