Is using Yahoo Mail still safe to use? This is a question a lot of users are asking as user accounts have been compromised as early as January. While Yahoo isn’t the only tech company attacked by hackers the ongoing issue that still prevails months after it was first reported is very concerning.

As reported on The Next Web they said that they have seen spikes in Google searches for their stories relating to Yahoo Mail attacks. Yahoo users are also reporting that their accounts are being hacked.

The attack usually occurs when you receive an email from someone you know or sometimes from a complete stranger. The message will contain a link and once you click on the link your account will get hijacked.
