My yahoo mailbox contains an email which my anti phishing software pop up says it has blocked from receiving my credit card details!. I'm worried that someone else will open the email on another computer as it is a business account with several people having access. if they don't have the correct software, I believe credit card details may be stolen. When I try to delete the email or "spam" it I just keep getting the warning message back.
This looks very professional & want it taken out of my inbox altogether - but how?

Thanks but this didnt come through as spam. it came from a website where I have an ad listed, so it came into my regular mailbox.

Contct the people who run the site and ask them what's going on and make sure you let your workmates know about it so they don't get hurt by the email and never under any circumstance leave any credit card or bank details on a computer that is on the internet

my bet is your boyfriend has used your credit card details for , what the site has reported to be 'age verification purposes only'. is it 'interweb' or perhaps 'web-jtcharge'. i bet he cancelled the free 1 day memberships as instructed and assumed he wouldnt be charged. dont blame the guy for the charge the companies assume that you will delete all correspondence from the companies then charge your card it is a fraudulent website and no doubt catches a lot of suckers this way. cancel your card. although ask him if he did read the small print and cancel the memberships. if he has you will probably find the charges will not apply to your next bill. you might also want to ridicule his gross stupidity in this matter but in all honesty the sites do say that you will NEVER be charged. good luck to you. ps I could be totally wrong but a virus is highly unlikely.

You should keep your E mail pass word secret. Change it now at once. Many hours are wasted due to spam email. However, by taking simple precautions while giving out your email and installing updated free software, you can prevent spam. More info available at

are you sure you didn't get a spam message telling you that? I've never heard of being warned about that. Usually these hackers are pretty crafty on sending messages trying to trick people into believing that their accounts have been breached.

Ask yourself - have you ever stored your credit card details in your computer? If you haven't, then you've got nothing to worry about anyways!
