Phishing email! Delete it immediately! Yahoo would never use the word "strange" when describing their website."If care is not taking" is improper English, so you know it's probably from a foreign country.

Never click on any links in emails. That's not how legitimate companies operate. If there's a problem, they will tell you to log into their website and then go to your account.
