I get at least ten financial scams per day from Nigeria, in my Yahoo in box.
First you must go to options and look for your personal mail and open, there you will find a box that you must check off for "full header", and then at the bottom of the page left click on save with your mouse.
Then you must send the email as an "in line text", and forward, repeat forward to: abuse@yahoo.com
If you fail to use a "full header:", or forward as an "in line text", Yahoo is unable to help you.
Every one I have received I reported to abuse@yahoo.com -- They have always replied back within 24 hours advising me that the account as been closed for violation of their EULA agreement.
Plus I have good contacts with Interpol, an I always send them a copy as they will forward to their agent where the email originated. An criminal action is taken.
If you an everybody else would report these scam artist perhaps they will get the message that their account will be closed and just may do some jail time.
Don't just delete them report them.
Sad to say that there are more rich victims then poor victims of these financial scams. I don't feel sorry for the rich as they never seem to have enough money in life.
I feel sorry for the old person who is robbed of their life savings.

whenever you click on "spam" in your email you are reporting it.
