I notified Yahoo as well, and I ended up shutting down the account not long afterward. Yahoo accounts had been getting hacked a lot during that time.
Lynx-lynx, I wish Yahoo had notified me of the unusual activity. I've never been to Viet Nam. The activity was flagged on their website as being unusual, but my notification consisted of me being spammed by my own email account.

Yeah, it's odd for me because I haven't received any 'different' emails than the norm at all ... so I'm not sure what was 'unusual' about my account.
