Someone trying to get into my Yahoo mail

WeddingStuff — Mon, 02 Apr 2018 00:59:45 +0800

I just received a very strange notification from Yahoo asking am I trying to sign into my Yahoo email account.

And the sign in attempt seems to be located in a far away country. It was asking me if I am trying to sign into my account. I tapped NO,

Afterwards, I tried to change my password for Yahoo, but it seems Yahoo has done away with passwords in 2015 or 2016, and replaced with an Account Key that is linked to the mobile phone. So NO WAY to change passwords!

By tapping this key it is enough to sign in.

So my question is, how does this idiot from some far away country get to this stage of getting Yahoo to ask me whether am I trying to sign into my account or not. Does he already have my password?

..............

If I answered YES by tapping the Yes key, for sure this person can already access my account.

I think it seems so EASY to get into your Yahoo email account? What if I made a mistake and tapped the YES key instead? Mistakes and accidents happen.

There is NO way to change passwords for Yahoo mail, and I wonder whether this person already has my old password.....Remember how Yahoo mail passwords were leaked 2 years ago?

Millions of accounts were compromised and Yahoo was asking everyone to change their password. I think many hackers received those passwords and are now trying their luck, using BOTS to do their work.

Any tech experts here who are involved with Security? What do you think about today's security standards? I think they are VERY bad, VERY poor.

21st Century herbs and vitamins: Any reviews?

I hope this thread is ok.

I have always wondered whether this brand is any good or not. They have been around for decades, and are the cheapest brand for vitamin/herb supplements in Malaysia...

But to be honest, some of their products don't seem to do anything. I have taken them before, and there is no effect whatsoever.

Some are ok, like the very basic ones, such as vitamin C, or garlic....which I have taken before, and seems genuine (how to fake?).

Am considering buying some herbs but their prices are very expensive for all brands, so 21st Century is the cheapest option.

Any reviews, from anyone?
