THINK!!!! Yahoo would NEVER send something like this. It is SPAM.

Whoops! This is called spoofing or phishing, and what they want is your personal information and your Yahoo id. Yahoo DID NOT send this, but they'd like to know about it.
If you received an email impersonating Yahoo! and would like to report it please forward the email to: mail-spoof@cc.yahoo-inc.com. If you have already been tricked into giving your password, please visit http://security.yahoo.com/article.html?a...
and follow the instructions there. Also: http://www.consumerfraudreporting.org/lo...

Hi.
You have been spammed, all you have to do is delete it, and please do not pass it on to any one else.

This is SPAM. It's a phishing email to get your password. Yahoo! will NEVER ask for your password. Ignore it and mark as spam.

It's a chainmail, and several others seem to have gotten the same message.

That's exactly what it is. I got something like that in the past. Send the message off to:
mail-spoof@cc.yahoo-inc.com

After that, turn around and give the message the spam "heave-ho" into the garbage.
