I have set up a portfolio in Yahoo Finance for tracking market fluctuations. I see a change in display format of my portfolio. I am not comfortable with it. I cannot see Transaction History and other options which were available before. Can I switch back to the old format?

Brent W asked:

I am buying a car from an individual in another state. He said he wants to it through Yahoo Finance!. The email I received (supposedly from support@yahoo-finance.us) says that I have to go to a Western Union office with the cash and have a wired to an agent in NY. There are no phone numbers in the email, and the link for asking questions does not work. There is a Yahoo Finance Invoice Transaction ID in the email.
