    Someone will use Yahoo Mail almost all his life and never receive a complaint of storage getting full. You will just open Gmail like this and start receive storage threats up and down. #AlrightEigbe

    @grace_za God help us all if Gmail becomes as vulnerable as Yahoo Mail. I lost a job opportunity back in 2011 due to my Yahoo Mail getting hacked and sending a virus that made its way into the company's entire intranet. I can't make this up. Sucked for them for having terrible IT, and me

    @sidrachain Weldon for the great work you are doing. Those of us who registered with Yahoo mail are still finding it difficult to login to our kyc port. Please I suggest you re-introduce the login with password+google authentication for us, so we too can be part of the new system upgrade.

    @yahoomail how is it that someone can hack my email and you cannot fix it or verify my account. This is crazy.

    Security Issue with Yahoo Mail ?? Was logging into Yahoo Mail, was being asked for verification from phone etc. The first OTP that came was from VIPINDIASHAADI - naturally I ignored. Requested again, this time from Yahoo - but the OTP is same, which means the first one was valid also. But this cannot happen without a mixup that definitely has a security implication. #yahoo #Cybersecurity

    @kmcnam1 That can't be true. They did used to ask you to upgrade to get more storage. Until the past coupl years, my problem with Yahoo mail was their awful spam detector that let spam and phishing emails get through.
