Emails received from Yahoo when not solicited or related

Hi Experts!

Below is pix of 2 emails I received same day.  I checked the Yahoo source email which is no-reply@cc.yahoo-inc.com it looks like Yahoo and the IP seems from London.  I recognize these emails because is when I change password or something like that, but the email address has been done nothing like that.  Does this mean somebody in London know my email address and is tryin to acess it?  Please let me know and what can I do if this is true?

Disregard my initial response. I agree with serialband a good step is to always change your password to something entirely different and increase password complexity even though you may have two-factor authentication set up.

Very true serialband, something so obvious, didn't think of that, thanx!

Jazz, I have  two-factor authentication set up, thanx!

Question, I was told at it could also be "Bots" that are programmed to gather by region emails and try to get into them.

u guys heard of this or something like it?
