Received in the mailbox Yandeks.Pochte's a sample:
Good day!
Someone (possibly you) have addressed hhhhhhhh@yandex.ru as
belonging to the user Yandex. If you do not
done, just delete this email and we'll never use
this address.In a system Yandex money you received for the claim,
in connection with which your account has been locked to clarify the situation.To view click on this link
This letter was written by a robot. Respond to it is not necessary.

Sincerely, Customer Support Yandex, suport@yandex.ru
Alerted immediately that the address is written with the error: "suport" instead of "support", as well as Yandex money, instead I ndeks.Dengi. Such errors do not allow robots Yandex.
Further, if you still click on the link, which absolutely can not do (secure copy and paste the address into your browser), we reach a page that looks absolutely identical to the login page to Yandex. The passport. That's only the address of the page to Yandex has no relation (http://sikorovvad.h18.ru/ya.html), you can see by the way, only their data do not enter:)

Clearly, in this case will go to your data if you enter them on this page? And also your money out?
We are dealing with phishing - deception in order to seize your payment information, logins and passwords to an electronic purse.

Keep in mind that experts from Yandex never on its own does not send emails. They only respond to your support request.

Last year, at a seminar on online advertising Yandex overheard opinion respected Yandeksoidov of free ads. As a model site was called twice, one of which - this site offers Slando. Once logged in, I can say that an informed opinion: place, which effectively solves its main task. I recommend to visit the section Slandosti, will not remain indifferent. Incidentally, the site can subscribe to announcements on the desired topic. It is very convenient.
