Hi there, and welcome to JustAnswer, I look forward to assisting you today with your question and providing the best answer possible.

Please do the following ASAP

Contact Yahoo and tell them your account is compromised via this link.

https://edit.yahoo.com/forgotroot

They will be notified and at the same time this will give you access again to your account (if you don't currently have access).

Most likely they usually delete all your emails and contacts. But within 48 hours you can get all this back.

If they have deleted all your emails and / or contacts, then use the form on the below link to have yahoo restore this for you

Also remember to change your password. I always suggest to use a combination of numbers and letters to make it hard to guess.

If you require any additional information, please do not hesitate to let me know
