Is it possible for 2 people to have the very same yahoo email address?

I got a message in my Bulk mail box that I couldn't send certain messages out because my box was full. To satisfy my curiousity, I clicked on the message only to find I didn't even recognize what it was about. I realized there must be another char305@yahoo.com. also, the other day I got an offer from a mortgage company to refinance my home at 729 Buttercup Lane in Slippery Rock, PA. I don't even own my home and that isn't my address. Can anyone relate to these strange email mix-ups?

I have a similar hijacked account that Yahoo tells me is not having any issues, yet I keep getting very nefarious emails asking if I would help the emailing party with his banking dilemmas and send his rerouted funds to his off shore accounts, and even though I never answer any of them, I keep getting them in various flavors from Oil Companies, Stock Exchanges, and even a POLO venue in London, yet I know it is the same hijacker as the return address on his email always is the same, just like he knows I am reading them by his mailing system telling him they were received.
Reply:sorry, but the reason i didn't say it's possible is because it isn't. somebody could have hijacked your account, but there would be different symptoms. it's far more likely to be plain and simple spam from your description. Report Abuse

Reply:Yahoo won't let you create an account if the name is already taken. My advice, stay out of your bulk mailbox. It's all spam and people trying to sell things. It's also dangerous because many viruses are sent out that way.
Reply:That can not be possible. I think maybe you got your email address stolen or that's email's just spam. If you got that email continously, mark them as Spam and you won't see them again. If you still think about someone using your address, change your password, send some email to your own address just to make sure it won't be send to any address. Beside, in some website, you can send email with any address you could imagine (haha@haha.haha for example). Sad, hah?
Reply:It can be a spam and if there's a link to click to enquire about the house in that address, it must be to attract people or to gain clicks to the website. The address can be imagery or random. OR if it is real, the company could have misspelled it, very probable if there are numbers in the e-mail address.


In short, if you don't have a house in that address and no one excessing your computer used your e-mail address, it is either spam or wrong address.
Reply:It is impossible. Those mails are spams, Don't pay attentions to them. And avoid opening executables from such kind of mails to avoid executing a virus in your pc.
Reply:Most likely your email address has been hijacked and is being used by a bulk spammer to send out millions of scam and spam emails. They usually do not keep using the same address for long so eventually you will stop getting things like this but in the meantime it will be an annoyance.





Never buy ANYTHING that comes to you in an unsolicited email; it only encourages the spammers.
Reply:No, it is not possible. Either someone is seeking revenge and signing you up for all these fake mailing lists, or someone is typing in the wrong email address when the sign up for things. Just delete the things and forget about them.
Reply:I have a person with same address that lives in California. I live in Ontario, Canada and have sent him lots of stuff that came to me.
Reply:Don't worry about it, it's only junk mail...You can block sender but then they will change one letter in their address and it will get through. If you don't recognize the name don't open it, it could be a virus and it could fry your whole computer and send emails from your address book and infect your friends...
Reply:It's completely impossible for two people to have exactly the same email address. The email address that you have written above is unique to you, but spammers go around looking for email addresses and then bombard them with emails. Doesn't matter whether it's at all releveant to you, you will still get them.





And expect to get more if you don't delete this post quickly before you get found by another spammer. If I were you, I'd click on the edit/pencil button at the top and delete your post ASAP.
