Is the email originating from iris_murdoch@yahoogroups.com titled "need confirmation" spam?

The email referred to originates from the same address as the Iris Murdoch group address. In terms of written English it is almost unintelligible having around thirty or so spelling and grammatical errors. It looks like the messages which carry viruses when you click on the web address contained therein. How can someone other than Yahoo use the Yahoo Groups email address?

This sounds like "spoofing". It also sounds like a scam mail to redirect you to a page that will plant cookies into your computer to track your buying or business practices. When you have a link in ANY email do this, hover your cursor over the link, DO NOT CLICK, then look at the bar on the bottom of your screen and check for a match, normally if the link if fake the information at the bottom of your page in the address bar will tell you exactly where you link is redirecting you to go. Another thing you can do is highlight the link then right click and view properties. After highlighting the link it shouldn't open the link. I do this sometimes but normally I just delete the entire email without doing anything. Hope this helps.
