Bob Struble Phishing warning trying to link Yahoo email accounts
I need to link an old Yahoo account and work address to my personal address also in Yahoo. I get a message that says : "Threat secured. We've safely aborted connection on accountlink.www.yahoo.com because it was infected with URL: Phishing." Then I use AVG to scan computer and nothing found. Is this a "real" problem or is AVG recognizing something that it interprets as Phishing but it's not? If it's an anomaly then I'd like to exit AVG and establish the link between my Yahoo email accounts but obviously not if it's truly discovered malware. Thanks.
