Yaaahhhhhhooooooooooooooooo

Yaaahhhhhhooooooooooooooooo




I have personally checked this and this seems to be true. It is applicable to everyone with a Yahoo ID.

You may remember when you signed up for a Yahoo ID and were asked by them if you wished to receive any "Special Offers & Marketing Communications." Yahoo recently revised their privacy policy. As a result, and regardless if you chose to receive any of these "Special Offers" or not when you signed up for your Yahoo ID, Yahoo have set every single person who has a Yahoo ID (and
those that have more than one) to "Yes" in these preferences. This means that you may well be inundated with even more junk mail than you are already receiving.

In order to change your settings back to whatever you had them at before, you will need to log in to your account and physically change them. Login at the following URL - you will be prompted for your Yahoo ID and password:

http://edit.my.yahoo.com/config/eval_profile

The middle segment within the Member Information (email addresses) section has a link to "Edit your marketing references". Click on this link and you will see that all of your settings have been changed to "Yes." Meaning of course that you will receive all kinds of "offers" from Yahoo and their so called "partners."

Unless you wish to receive even more junk mail than you are already getting, you may wish to go through the entire page and choose whether to receive such notices. Also, right at the bottom of the page are other ways you could be notified - by phone or postal mail. Unless you wish to receive unsolicited phone calls and paper junk mail, you will need to change these settings to
"No" also. Once you have finished your selections, make sure you click on the Save Changes button right at the bottom of the page.

Yahoo is supposively sending out notices to all its users regarding this particular change. However, it is estimated it will take several weeks for everyone to receive their notification. In the meantime, a considerable amount of marketing mail could be making its way to your mail boxes...
