These yahoo scam messages have been around for a bazillion years - they're obviously fake.

Thanks-- I email yahoo! and they said they are fake

and any yahoo! official messenger would not be written in all caps and the username would not be 'cuttiewithbootie'

how about to send the person that message like 800 times and teach them a lesson. Muhahaha

he he lol i'm WAY ahead of ya in two area's

One i already have- so i'm ahead of ya there
Two i send it about 1000 times- so WAY ahead of ya there

How is it possible to figure out that there is only 57 alphanumeric username combinations left? Who spends that much time on that?
