    Hello friends.

    Today I was hacked by someone using an iPhone. I very quickly logged them our from the recent login page. However, I seem to have lost there name as it does not appear in the recent activity page anymore. Is there anywhere in Yahoo where I can get the Login History that would show the devices name again? I saw you could download some data on the privacy page but I am unsure if this would include the devices names that signed in. Thanks for the help!

    Hi

    Could you start from the top.

    You were hacked... is that your yahoo account?

    Have you checked with yahoo support?

    Did they guess your password?

    Or is this an ex-friend who already knew your password?

    What have the Police done so far?

    Hello sarahk

    - Yes, my yahoo account !

    - I tried to contact yahoo services but the only thing i got was them wanting me to sign in to ask the community or contacting the help desk which i have to pay 5 dollars to do through new "pro acct management"

    - i dont sure but i dont know too :(

    - I do not share my yahoo password with anyone. I use the lastpass application to store my password

    I have not informed the Police

    Can you still access your account?
    Have you been able to change the password?
    Has there been any damage to your emails, or other content stored on yahoo's servers?

    $5 sounds like a good deal, less than a beer at a pub.
