Yahoo! loan and refund was not received

I had email this peson about a loan application, as I was in need of money. Iam from Fiji Islands and I had contacted this person who said he was able to provide loans amounting from three thousand to three million dollars. Given how persuasive he was I was drawn to his scam and followed every procedure. As I paid the fee of $290 to Alisi Mei whom he said was the agent here in Fiji. After which he said that I contact another person named Joseph Davis, who said for me to pay $870 again before I get the loan. After much consideration I said enough because I finally realized that I was incurring a loss rather than getting a loan.As I asked for a refund he has been silent ever since.
Below is the persons address:
- [protected]@yahoo.com
- [protected]@yahoo.com

They told me they were prominent personnel from France. Please help me catch this scammers so that other people aren't lured into there scheme.

Yahoo! wowmall sponsored advert in mail

Purchased unwittingly a product advertised as a Breitling watch at a warehouse sale ar RM 299.
Had it delivered via DHL to my doorstep and paid COD for item.
On opening package the item was not a Breitling lookalike but a NACD watch similar in looks.
Please refrain frm allowing such sales into our systems. A thorough check of such sales outlet operating under different guises cause immense issues for your trusted users of Yahoo Mail.
All correspondence to Wowmail have fallen on deaf ears. Saddening

Yahoo! your coverage of independent news

You allow posting of information on your news site that is not headline true, this is wrong and irresponsible. This is not one time but many that I have allowed to go on questioned but this one takes the cake. If this indeed happened to her he was never a federal judge at that time. This is what I tried to send to the independent then I see on your web page for news it is gone but it remained for at least an hour that I am aware om your news site. Even Craigslist does a rudimentary check on items before they published. Yahoo is much bigger. I am creating a document storage of all the items that going on off your news site that your company is ultimately responsible for. This whole headline article is bad news reporting and is prejudging a person. Wrong, wrong. regardless if a friend(s) said something it is still hearsay and it is wrong to report headlines that are without merit. Nothing has been collaborated!

Yahoo! yahoo news feed

Why does every story in my newfeed have a liberal slant to the Supreme Court hearings? I would like to think that your newsfeed would be fair and balanced, but literally every other story about the current hearing is from a liberal based website with negative comments about conservatives. I would expect you to present both sides. I have used Yahoo for many years and you are my favorite search engine, but I will switching to something else soon. I am tired of the liberal agenda in your newsfeed.

Yahoo! threatening email/blackmail

Dear Yahoo,

I have received an email from a yahoo based email address (). He is asking for bitcoins. Email is reproduced below for necessary action at your end please. I do not have any yahoo email address. But below email was sent to me at my official email.

""I know 963534 is your password. Lets get straight to the point. You don't know me and you are probably wondering why you're getting this e-mail? No one has compensated me to check about you.

actually, I setup a software on the X streaming (porn) web site and do you know what, you visited this web site to experience fun (you know what I mean). When you were viewing videos, your browser started functioning as a RDP having a keylogger which provided me access to your display and web camera. after that, my software gathered all your contacts from your Messenger, FB, as well as email . After that I created a video. First part shows the video you were watching (you've got a fine taste ; )), and next part shows the recording of your web camera, yeah it is u.

You have two different solutions. Why dont we explore these types of possibilities in details:

Very first alternative is to neglect this e mail. In this instance, I am going to send your tape to every single one of your contacts and thus think about the humiliation you will get. Not to forget in case you are in a romance, precisely how it would affect?

Number 2 option should be to give me $4000. Let us describe it as a donation. Subsequently, I will instantaneously delete your video. You can go on with daily life like this never took place and you never will hear back again from me.

You will make the payment via Bitcoin (if you do not know this, search for "how to buy bitcoin" in Google).

BTC Address to send to: 1DtBWdZQcgBRdQtPma5w1jfDUP2fWvABJS
[CASE SENSITIVE copy and paste it]

If you have been wondering about going to the law enforcement, surely, this email cannot be traced back to me. I have taken care of my actions. I am not attempting to demand so much, I wish to be rewarded.

You now have one day in order to make the payment. I've a unique pixel in this e-mail, and at this moment I know that you have read this e mail. If I do not get the BitCoins, I will, no doubt send your video recording to all of your contacts including family members, co-workers, and so on. However, if I do get paid, I will destroy the recording right away. If you need proof, reply Yes then I definitely will send out your video recording to your 11 contacts. It's a non:negotiable offer, so please do not waste my personal time and yours by replying to this message. ""

Yahoo! valid email being bounced

Yahoo has started over the last week to bounce all email coming from mail-01.yourhosting.link / 209.147.116.195.

If you go to MX Toolbox you will see this domain/IP is NOT on any blacklist and it has been monitored for over 6 months and has never appeared on any blacklist.

The bounce message claims:

421 4.7.0 [TSS04] Messages from 209.147.116.195 temporarily deferred due
to user complaints

However, this is coming back to 7 different domains and there are no traces that any complaint was ever filed.

Additionally, it is not resetting it is getting worse.

We need more details as to why this is going on, or we will have to start recommending to clients to stop using Yahoo Mail.

This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

Since September 6, 2018, I have been sent 19 emails that try to get me to deposit money in a bitcoin account. Each email gives a different account. They have my old password to use as a threat. These are the originating email addresses and they go right to my spam folder. What is Yahoo doing about this stuff? [protected]@yahoo.jp [protected]@yahoo.jp...

Yahoo! yahoo website

How can you allow a picture of a woman practically naked to be on your homepage? Do you know how many children see this? The woman is barely covered up, with pieces of plastic covering her nipples.

Can you explain to me how and why a "news article" like this get put on the front page? Do you not have anyone editing your content? This isn't the first time racy pictures or explicit content has been posted.

Shame on all of you.

Yahoo! email

I have yo say that your support service is very poor. I have been unable to access my email account for the last 24 hours but there is no means of activating any customer support. The online directives are irrelevant. When I have tried other 'avenues' I have been redirected to BT.com whose chat line service, after half an hour, tell me that they cannot help as I am a Yahoo customer.

I have had to identify 'other' as the category as email is not specified.

Nor do i want to log in to 'socials'!

Not impressed.

Yahoo! email intrusion

I am an actor, on 9/14 I received a request on L A Casting from [protected]@castingconnections.com asking about my availability for a two day shot. I answered sayin I was available for both days. Laura Hartman casting director was " Nice subject line: subject "[censored]" I did not place that on my e-mail, and it shows that [censored] was not part of my e-mail. By the way, they contacted me for the job, but there reply to me was the job was filled. Now the question is if my e-mail didn't show that subject word, and there's did, who inserted it. I intend to follow up on this with anyone that will listen.

Pat Lyons. thanks you lost me work.
