King of Pop's Death Yields Spam Email
Yahoo! Mail is up-to-date in filtering email with subject line connected to Michael Jackson's death as a spam. Replying to a spam email will then confirm that the email address is active and will be used by spammers in their future activity. Even receiving a forwarded message (see above screenshot) is likely to be cautioned as well and advised not to open such if it came from a unknown sender.
