Hello,

I just received the following message in my Yahoo mail inbox, coming from the following email address: ***@***. In the recipient field, I see the email address ***@***

Here is the content of the message:

"A login attempt has been made with your user ID.

Please review the details of the attempt:

IP address: 309.408.278.890 (115.231.188.109 -Chinanet) is located in Zhongxin

(China - Hunan)

Unusual activities detected on your account.

Proceed to update your account to avoid deletion

CONFIRMATION OF YOUR IDENTITY

Identify yourself: identification"

The identification includes a link that I have not clicked on yet for security reasons. I would like to know if this message was actually sent by Yahoo.

Thank you for your response.

Best regards,
Sille Moens

Hello,

If no names, pseudonyms, or website names are mentioned, then it is better not to click on this link.

The email comes from "Yahoo Service" via the address ***@***. Is it really a Yahoo service?

Thank you for your help!

Best regards
