IF you actually traced it, you'd get an ICP Address...basically a computer's number...a firewall on the offending computer might prevent this... but good luck finding out where in the world the computer is...

it quite is a rip-off that has been happening for years. which you would be waiting to have the skill to be targeted that Yahoo is attentive to. they're sending notices to persons that have not have been given any further used their account for over a 12 months that it may be closed if now no longer accessed. questioning the persons it refers to at the instant are not getting precise of get right of entry to to Yahoo mail they are going to now now no longer see the e-mail besides. The notices don't have a link to click. they only say sign in. ? ?

Yes, but it would take a lot of time and resources. I I once received an email like that. It would ask you to deposit a certain amount first for them to "verify" your identity. Actually, it's a scam. Instead of inheriting a huge sum of money, you'll end up losing money instead.

the police know how 2 trace.. if your getting spam mail from people trying 2 scam you, you can stop them by blocking their addy or click on options in mail room.. it will delete unopened spam and continue 2 delete spam as it comes in.. you really shouldn't open mail from anyone you don't know.. it can have viruses..

yes , but can't remember the software for doing so , i tried it once for free ( 3 days trial ) , this software gave you the time when you open the e mail and location of the recipients . it was great but you had to pay for it.

unless you know this person personally, I would assume the email is fake/spam. Definitely don't send them your bank account information.

If the email you received was unsolicited, leave it alone. I must be a scam. Don't answer it!!
