"Yahoo is shutting down on August,17th.They want to get rid of free messenger.if you delete this and don't pass it on, your name will be deleted. A lot of people have already been deleted. Right click on the group name of your buddy list, and click 'Send Instant Message to All in Group'..." one of my yahoo buddy sent me this warning. I just curious, is it another hoax? has somebody here get it too?

I'd think that this is a hoax. Very similar to the chain letters that we receive in emails. Lol. If that was real, Yahoo would definitely announce it on their search engine site. It would be best to ignore that.
