whoever is responsible for running the Fulicov ad I fell for and the current (July29) Jetery ad should be fired. No, I mean it - fired immediately for being either an idiot or an accomplice on the take. There's no excuse for running these obviously fake ads

Said it already - running scam ads shows you don't review just take money & run this junk. You can't get $1k electric bikes for $59 anywhere, nor 2k garden boxes for $30. It not only shows you don't care about anyone who might think these have been screened & are therefore legit since you run them here, but it also shows you folks are flat stupid and can't tell those prices are GUARANTEED to be fake. STOP DOING THIS *NOW* YAHOO

I actually fell for this "too good to be true" sale on King Crab legs only to have my credit card processor deny it as fraudulent. Apparently they were already aware of this scammer processing under the names of "workvoguet.com" and "scenrylovea" ... funny, they said their website is called "bigcrabsale" but that is NOT what it processes as!! BEWARE

Why don't you hire proofreaders for the texts of all your amateur journalists that can't spell and don't know the present perfect verb tenses with the proper past participle. Obnoxious California school-drop-outs!

dont have your ad's play sound automatically. Its very annoying. and I have to turn the volume off my computer because the next ad will just have the volume on that one. Yahoo has been my main news site, but this has literally caused me to start to look for other alternatives.

Just in the past week or so (late March 2023) ads in the sidebar have started auto-playing videos with the sound NOT muted. I tried installing a video-autoplay-blocker but it doesn't work on your ad spaces. Sometimes it even looks like the audio icon shows that the sound SHOULD be muted, but it isn't. Maybe it is some kind of ad-in-an-ad situation where the audio settings aren't being adhered to. Whatever the reason, make it stop or I swear I'll move all my email elsewhere and never visit Yahoo again.

Typical IDIOTS at Yahoo being PC, but totally tone deaf on school shooting
