Bypassing Yahoo's "secure your account" screen?

It's come to my attention that quite a few people (myself included) have been hopelessly locked out of their Yahoo accounts due to losing access to the recovery phone number and/or email. It is frustrating beyond belief. If someone could please create a script that would allow us to skip the whole verification part and just log right in, that'd be wonderful!

What you're asking is basically a method to bypass the very essence of authentication/verification. It's not possible, of course.

Someone else made the exact script I'm seeking, nearly a year ago. It no longer functions.

It's unfortunate that Yahoo has no customer service support and currently operates in a way that leaves a lot users hanging dry.

If a service allows bypassing its security via scripting (not possible with most popular services) and doesn't fix such glaring security hole immediately, this service isn't trustworthy. So I really hope that time the issue was something else.

Ah, I understand. Well, I'm not too enlightened on how scripting works, but I figured it was worth a shot to seek assistance here since I've tried just about everything else. Oh well. Thank you for your clarity.
