    I had a friend who had that happen. Some hacker in Romania was trying to breach his account.

    I should imagine it would mean that someone attempted to get into my Yahoo account. Lol:)

    Sounds like a hacker to me.

    These things are often scams trying to hack your account, but e-mail companies do sometimes send genuine ones. Usually, they block your account for a while until you change your password, if it is genuine.

    Apparently, it means that the 'Shift' on your computer isn't working, preventing the use of uppercase letters.

    :(

    This could be fake; it could be a hacker trying to get your password and personal information.

    Probably.
