Yahoo. Answers to questions I didn't ask

Over this past while I have been receiving emails notifications (allegedly) coming from Yahoo Answers informing me there is a new answer to a question I asked. Trouble is, I didn't ask the question!
My view is that they are some kind of fake email, that's why I said allegedly! Problem is I don't know what to do. Any suggestions?
I did open one or two when they first started to appear but none since then , I just delete them. I mainly use an iPhone and iPad mini, I have a PC but very seldom use it now and even less so for opening emails
As always many thanks for help offered

i appreciate what you are saying but my fear is that it is some sort of malware and not to deal with the actual cause still creates a danger.forgotmyname wrote: »Add them to your spam list. Sorted.
However, following your suggestion I have added it to my spam list.0 -

If it was malware then YOU would be posting the questions and sending them etc not just receiving emails from them.
Run malwars scans if your wary. Been downloading dodgy stuff? Someone else uses the computer or put your email address?Censorship Reigns Supreme in Troll City...0
