How do I close a repeatedly hacked account that is sending out spam. I have changed my password ever time?

Sorry you’re going through this. There have been numerous reports about Yahoo Mail being hacked. Go to: TheNextWeb http://thenextweb.com/insider/2013/03/06... They report that Yahoo has known about the hacking since January.

I guess that wasn't important enough for Yahoo to email us and tell us this fact and what precautions we should take. I've been using Yahoo Mail for 15 years, but I just left. My wife and I experienced numerous problems (slow response or no response) and my daughter got hacked recently.

BTW, we're all using different computers. I highly recommend this great web posting entitled "WHAT TO DO IF YAHOO EMAIL HAS BEEN HACKED." It's on HubPages.com http://poshbytori.hubpages.com/hub/What-... Check it out.

It has lots of good information. You have to turn to other sites, because Yahoo's customer service has been poor. However, I noticed in the last week they are improving.

Yahoo has a web page that allows you to send the customer service folks a question. It’s: http://io.help.yahoo.com/contact/index?l... If you have issues accessing your email I don’t know how they send you an answer. A couple of people posted this customer service phone number on Yahoo Answers: 866-562-7219 (I haven’t tried it.

I hope it’s real.) I did a search of Yahoo Help and found lots of INFO ABOUT HACKING, including a wizard you can use if you think your account has been compromised: http://help.yahoo.com/kb/index?locale=en_US&y=PROD_ACCT&page=answers&type=narrow&fac=CMS-CATEGORY-YAHOO-PROD.PROD_ACCT&question_box=account+has+been+hacked&searchid=1365537713645 And this link deals with HACKING & PHISHING: http://help.yahoo.com/kb/index?locale=en_US&y=PROD_ACCT&page=content&id=SLN8292 Why they didn’t email some of this info to all Yahoo Mail users bewilders me. Do Yahoo execs think the hacking on their site is a secret?! I've surfed the web and researched problems at Yahoo Mail since my daughter was hacked in early March.

I’ve found that Yahoo Mail has been hacked an awful lot this year (roughly 80% more than the other two major web mails: Gmail and Outlook.com). Some tech forums say the hackers got in a back door that Yahoo left open. Hackers may also have traced you through Facebook.

Changing passwords just on Yahoo may not work. I suggest... § 2 THINGS ALL YAHOO MAIL USERS SHOULD DO NOW AS A PRECAUTION §.

Sounds like Your account got compromised. First change your password. After changing your password run anti Virus and Anti Spyware.

Should be fine then.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
