Yahoo does nothing to stop groups from sending spam etc. to non members?

I have emailed yahoo abuse,yahoo groups abuse and they still do nothing to stop groups from yahoo sending thier junk to people that are not in thier groups.A1 groups are the groups doing this .I have sent over 20 emails and yet yahoo does nothing. all they do is send the same standard form answer or tell me to unsubscribe. It is hard to unsubscibe from a group at yahoo you do not even belong to! Is there anybody at yahoo that does thier job! yahoo and yahoo groups sure does not


do thiers...

Yahoo does nothing to stop groups from sending spam etc. to non members?
Yahoo sadly cannot do anything about these scams. The messages come from computers which are taken over by hackers and used for this purpose. It is almost impossible to catch these people. The main thing is for us to be careful not to fall for their scams. Don't answer just delete them Good luck and be careful.
