Default Yahoo members with Stolen Acct Passwords

Hey,

Yesterday my password got switched and I couldn't log in. This morning I called yahoo.

Without the proper info, date of birth and zip/postal, you're pretty much screwed. I got my yahoo account maybe around 8 years ago when internet security wasn't always as secure, so back then I usually put bogus info.

So as of now I cannot get into my account, nor will I get the password reset unless I can remember what bogus info I put.

I guess the only thing to do now is A) complain about it and do nothing. or B)fight to get it back.

I honestly don't see why we cannot have access to our account. It's their screw up, not ours. Their security has been comprimised so we have to suffer the consequences? I'm gonna put a petition in and have it sent to the yahoo corporate office. I'm not saying its gonna work but its worth a shot to get our accounts back. I guess we can start by getting a tally of how many people want to petition the issue, after that in a week or so, or whenever we have enough names, we can pm or email all the info to me, i'll have it printed out in a letter and mailed to the head office.

Reply with your Support Sentry usernames, after we get a certain number i'll PM everyone and we'll get something rolling asap.
