those are some of the things it asks for but what made me think this was a scam was the fact that it wants my email but it sent one to me? also if this was really yahoo wouldnt they already have my email?

If it is in the bulk folder no doubt that it is a scam but if its in the inbox u can report to yahoo first. But most likely doesn't matter it is a scam. You'll get thousands of those offers. So yeah it is a scam.

Never answer anything that looks similar to what you posted above. It is a scam and they just want your personal information!
