I am the legitimate account holder but I can't verify one of the security questions. which is what is my home zip code. I can't figure out what zip code i used. They wouldn't help me further unless i give them the right answer. If I had a better memory I wouldn't be in this mess. Anyway, why would anyone go through so much trouble to get into someone else's account. I just want to get back into my account. Please tell me if you are able to help me. I have proof that I am Emily Vo for the account emilyvo@yahoo.com. Thank you.

There are only around 50,000 zip codes. If you narrow this list down by removing ones from states you never lived in, I bet you can get it right in a matter of 1,000 guesses or less!

You are asking me to break laws in my country, to help you, a complete stranger.
