OFf TOPIC. yahoo MAIL accounts keeps asking to add phone number and change PW

I use a couple yahoo accounts (and a couple gmails)

on yahoo EMAIL past few months this is driving me crazy

every time I log in on my laptop or change between yahooo email accounts I have to go through 2 extra pages where yahoo is
suggesting I add a mobile phone number and then change a passowrd. I hit skip but two or three extra steps just to log in is bother ing me


anyway around this

In one case I added a mobile and a new password and I still get that same message
any work arounds? Ive looked in settings and dont see anything to click. google searches finding nothing.


im all for security and yahoo being worried but Im happy with what I have.

on my cell phone I just use the app and no extra questions or add this or that.

anyone else have this same situation with yahoo EMAIL?

Yea. I have been getting that crap for a long time too. My guess is, if we were to comply, we would soon be getting email ads and texts from every shitheel around. What could possibly be another reason they want it, other than marketing and sharing their lists.

Ive been getting the same thing for awhile now, sucks

Irritating as shit... I've had those a counts ever since I've had a comp. And now I'm thinking of creating a dif email account on a non Spyware type site

same for me, annoying as hell. and they make u create a complicated password to
my other yahoo acct, no annoying message and no complicated password
