The other day I got a message from Yahoo about being able to register a new domain for $4.95. So I figured one day I will have one 6-pack instead of two <g>, so I can afford this. I registered a domain and didn't even have a chance to enable email forwarding, nothing. Today I get a spam email addressed to _my_ personal email (that is the one I used to register the new domain, as Yahoo needed to notify me that CC charge was processed). The spam is targeting me with a subject "mynewdomain.com is yours, right?". Therefore, this person/people could only get the information that I registered a new domain name and my personal email _only_ from Yahoo.
Isn't hypocritical of Yahoo to advertise all kind of spam blockers and yet sell my info to a spam warehouse?
