To Delware...with love.

Being in Delware is one of the most pleasant experiences in my life.
This second smallest South Atlantic US state is one of the most quiet,peaceful
states in US.As far as I have seen,the place is very cool and decent.Last week one of our Indian neighbours moved out of the apartment and I could see three or four indian families biding farewell to them.It was like a mini-Indian

To my dear Yahoo id...

Two weeks back, I experienced one of the most horrible two hours of my life.That fine morning I woke up very peaceful and pleasant just to know that my personal yahoo id was hacked. Ah…there goes my peace. :(

All the attempts to retrieve my password went in vain.Even my alternate e-mail address was changed.Next thing I did was to search for the Yahoo Customer care number.The task was exhausting.Atlast, found one.

Here's another tough job.All my answers about my account was politely dismissed by the Customer Care Executive saying am not providing the right details. All my personal information were changed by some unknown Resident Evil. Whoever did this to me…please live long in hell!. Somehow after those dreading two hours over phone, on and off hold,I got a temporary password.

Then after changing the password, and completely backing up all the mails,I mercilessly terminated my yahoo account.

A couple of days later, I had a mail from one of my friends saying his e-mail account was also hacked.Later I was enlightenend on how both our yahoo accounts got hacked.It was because of a offline message in the yahoo messenger which had a link to an unknown website,which on clicking hacks your yahoo account and sends the same message to all the people in your own friend list.

Observation or Result : Your Friend could search for Yahoo Customer Care number!

Inference or Moral of the Story: Hah…figure it all up yourself!!!
