They're just validating a credit card number; that was an authorization which won't be settled, almost certainly. Royce Williams <royce () techsolvency com> wrote:

It appears in the past I've had multiple Yahoo! ID's and I wasI, on the other hand, need someone from Yahoo! to contact me, becauseI decided to test their "email wishlist" feature. Repeated attempts got me nothing but a message saying that my credit card information was incorrect. But when I checked my bill this morning, I have three fifty cent charges against my account (one for each time I revalidated my email address while attempting to use their form). There's no contact page on http://wishlist.yahoo.com, despite the fact that it's an ecommerce page that takes credit cards, and there's no apparent way to contact a human from the main yahoo page. I can always ask my credit card company to refuse the charges, but if Yahoo! is charging credit cards and not providing services, I think someone there needs to know there's a problem. Never mind taking credit card numbers and providing no customer support. And it's not an isolated incident -- the exact same thing happened to me last night as well. Royce
