You'll notice that the same paragraph is repeated twice, but a bit differently worded in the first sentence the second time. Each paragraph is in a different font and a different colour.
Don't know whether this is genuine or not, but I also don't know that Yahoo would ask for all the details given above. At the same time I can't afford to lose this account.
Does anyone know if this would be genuine or not? Has anyone else received the same email?
Thanks for reading and in advance for any help offered.
