Question: Is it true that Yahoo! Messenger will be shutting down on August? My friends in Yahoo! Messenger sent me chain messages that it will be. It says that if you will not send that message, you have to say buh-bye to that account. I hope this is not true. Besides, you will pay when you want to download Yahoo! Messenger.\n\nI am not sure that the month is August.\nThanks for your answer in advance!!!

Answer: no.  yahoo messenger is not shutting down, you got a scam message from someone.  Just ignore it.
