How to contact Yahoo?

Question

I just received an email from "Yahoo" telling me that if I didn't send them an email back with certain personal information ( Yahoo! ID, password and date of birth) that "Warning !!! Account owners who refuses to reply with his or her information within one week or receiving this warning will lose his or account permanently"

I'm not sending anyone my info unless I'm sure it's really necessecary, but I don't want to lose my account either. I couldn't find a way to contact Yahoo to make sure that it was really from them.. should I just wait and see if it happens or not, or does anyone out there have a way that I can email them???

It is a scam, Imani, Yahoo would not ask you for your personal information in an E-mail like that.
It is a scam to get your personal information and/or your money, or both! 
Do not respond to it.
Report it, forward it to the FTC at spam@uce.gov and to the abuse desk of the sender's ISP. 
For yahoo, report them here: http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mail/ya...
Choose Fraud as the reason for the violation you're reporting on.
Also, if the E-mail appears to be impersonating a bank or other company or organization, forward the message to the actual organization.

you don't need to contact Yahoo about it. Yahoo will never asks information of your account. it is a SCAM trying to phish your account. ignore it and put it on you Spam folder.
