Few years back,yahoo chat was my favorite chatting place. I made a lot of friends there and most of them are still my friends. But now, you can not stay in any chat room for more than five minutes because in those five minutes you will receive about 15 spam messages by the real people and most of these messages contain adult content links.
It is really very difficult to control spam messages in chat rooms but yahoo email spam filter is also not detecting scam emails. Below is a “Lottery Scam” email that arrived in my yahoo inbox and not detected by yahoo. I don’t know why there are some idiots who think that they can win a lottery without buying a ticket and are looking for shortcuts to make money, these people are soft targets of scammers. Well Yahoo! If we have not subscribed any newsletter or sender is not our friend and he/she is not in our contact list then why your spam filter is not preventing such emails?
Comment spam and email spam are increasing day by day and this is the right time to control spamming otherwise things will get even worst. All big companies including Google, Yahoo and Microsoft have to fight harder along with individual users to keep scammers and spammers away from the internet.
