Have had Yahoo email for years and years.

They are saying they will suspend my account if I don’t upgrade.

If I upgrade they will start charging me $1.00 per month.

Huh? I have Yahoo and have for about 15 years...never been told that...and I'm thinking you might be getting scammed.

Are you sure it is not a phishing or scam email? Beware. I have gotten a few similar but they are scams.

This was in 2013 and I'm wondering if there's a new scam. I'd change my password immediately!

They are just looking for your credit card info

It could be a scam, I agree.

Guess I will find out at the end of October.

A Google search did find this though:

One other big change is the discontinuation of Ad Free Mail, which is replaced with a new plan called Yahoo Mail Pro. Like its predecessor, Yahoo Mail Pro will have no ads and includes priority customer support. While Ad Free Mail was $49.99 a year, Yahoo Mail Pro is $34.99 per year, or $3.49 a month. The mobile-only option is $9.99 per year, or $0.99 a month.

It's a scam. Was the person that contacted you a Nigerian Prince? Looks like he's planning on getting all your money 1.00 at a time. BEWARE!

I do! Several years ago Verizon outsourced email service to AOL. I link it to Outlook and it works great for me.
