As I've moved a bit lately, I use a Yahoo email address. I just got a 'verification' message asking for password and birthday. It looked very official, but I'm leery of it-ain't gonna do it. Any Yahoo users out there getting 'verified'?

It's a scam. Realistic looking yahoo, Ebay, and Paypal messages like that go out all the time.
