Yahoo isn’t sending this, your email is. Either you fell for a phishing scam and gave your password to a scammer who has access to your account, or you opened an email or clicked on a link containing a virus that infected your computer and is sending this out. Run an up to date virus scan ASAP then change your password

Some of these people do this from these FWD FWD FWD emails, that have large groupings of addresses on them. They dont need to be in your account, necessarily.
They can use your address from another email source, and send stuff to all of your contacts…because the FWD person provides them with the contacts.
Not only do FWD emails pass on viruses, they also provide spammers with addresses.

Otherwise, do change your password.
