Don't play with Yahoo. You'll get burnt.

Don't know what the heck you are talking about. I have been using yahoo for
years and never once have they tried to get my credit card number. But then
again, if you are stupid enough to give out your credit card info then you
deserve to get burnt...

Why? My statement was very clear. Do you have a problem with English?

Perhaps you could try a little rational thought before you assume that
nothing can happen to anyone unless it happens to you first. I suggest you
call or email Yahoo and ask them if they have required a valid credit card
as proof of age... I think their answer will surprise you.

I am not and I did not.
Your first two sentences were far from rational, but this last one is
beyond belief. You really should take up another hobby. One where IQ is
not a prime survival factor.

Yahoo has *never* required a credit card # from me, even in a couple
groups I belong to which are "age verified". All I had to do was click
on a button that said I swore that I was over 18.
