Just had a warning from Yahoo. Anybody got any ideas? I've set it to prevent apps from signing in if they don't have Yahoo's level of security.

unroll.me?
Outlook on iphone instead of the native email app?
AshleyMadison messenger app?

If you haven't already, set up 2 factor authentication on yahoo using your mobile number - or use the Yahoo sitekey to avoid using a password at all.

FBI trying to get Hillary's emails.

ps did you notice the big Yahoo! hack recently? Need to change password at minimum as a result of that. Set up 2 factor auth also.

Also, the "warning" could be a scam riding on the back of that hack. Don't click any links in the warning mail.

Yeah, had these. Assumed it was iOS on my phone, being as Yahoo has a mail app now.
