    Yahoo got hacked back at the end of last month. They said thousands of passwords had been stolen and recommended everyone change their password. Did you happen to use the same password for your Paypal that you do for your email account? If so that's a big no no. Also you should always delete any Paypal/bank/or any other important messages that come to your email if they have an account link in them. That way if someone does hack your email then they can't just log into your account through a link

    Yep... I have stepped up my security on everything. Changed all my passwords and set up txt notifications. I don't use the same Passwords on my email and accounts that deal with money but those suckers are slick! This is the 2nd time my yahoo email has been hacked in the last 3 years. Yahoo sucks! Bet they don't get me at yahoo again. Shut'n that sucker DOWN!

    I understand the general concept with life lock but how does that work with purchases that go through your Paypal account?
