"Monty". "monte" is the Italian for mountain. Hmmm - mountain of spam. But back to the original question.

Ive just recieved 2 emails from apparent "yahoo security" saying that they will delete my account until i give them certain details... the thing is that it was in my spam folder... its really suspicious that yahoo would mark themselves as spams.. any way here is the email

Yes it's spam. More accurately identity theft as Adrian says. If you had looked through all the mail headers (some wizard qualifications required) you would find it was almost certainly not sent from a Yahoo server.
Always assume when you are asked to provide info the requestor has already been told, or has no need to know (eg occupation as requested here) it is a scam.
