the real proof to you though should be Yahoo's IT which is working on it an admits they got broken into.
Phishing is not new but they are getting more sophisticated.
Public trust in the mainstream media is at an all-time low, says a new Gallup poll. It's not surprising, of course, since most people have now come to realize the mainstream media is nothing more than a corporate mouthpiece that pretends to be engaged in reporting the news:

It's nice that Yahoo's told you that, but that guarantee it to be it
so. This thing has been around for a while now, and in advance of
anybody's "cloud". You see these spams on this group and others like
it because it's a mail list that's programmed to forward one member's
input to all members.
The bulk of such spams I receive are sent from private addresses TO
private addresses, sometimes including mail list addresses, and some
of those are from google groups and from other mail lists I've never
heard of before that seem to follow the interests of the
"sender"...Doesn't seem to be a hack-job so much as a harmless but
annoying bit of malware.
Sooooooo...Looking at your post I see it going to 5 yahoo mail-groups
and 2 private addresses. Perhaps you should compare the addresses in
your post to those in your address book.
