    If the email letter that you received has not purple logo or insignia of Yahoo!, you can safely assumed that it is fake, a SCAM! Why should Yahoo asked you those information when they have them all in their files already. The one who sent you this email is phishing your personal information so they can use them for frauduenl use.
    DELETE it and do not give them any personal information. Those persons are criminals!
