I just received an email that said I had asked for my yahoo account to be deactivated. I did not send anything. I don't want to deactivate m
That email is fake. It was most likely sent by scammers trying to get your account information. You can just delete it. Check out our post on identifying official Yahoo emails:
Thank you!

Please need help! I don't want to respond to the email I received from "yahoo" without knowing that it is a true email from yahoo and not a scam. They are asking from my date of birth and password for my email account. Please help! Is this real? I don't want my account suspended.

This is more of aquestion, I received an email from Yahoo!mail indicating that my account will be deactivated by my request. I never requested this. Who do I contact to prevent this from happening?

How do I contact someone. I received an email is being deactivated, I don't want it to be and there should be no reason for it to be.
