I recieved a fraudulent e-mail to my Yahoo e-mail from a person with the Yahoo e-mail address of " tom02good@yahoo.com ". The e-mail was an offer to buy a boat that I had bid on in Ebay. I did send my name and address in an attempt to get information on the boat, but have found out the REAL owner of the boat did not send the offer. What can be done about this person and what can Yahoo do? Thank, You, Harold

It would make most sense to foreword the message to Yahoo support. They may be able to lock his account.
