I have received a mail from xxxxx@yahoo-inc.com
.
Is there any way I can check if this domain is owned by Yahoo, or by a scammer?
nslookup returns different results for yahoo.com
and yahoo-inc.com
.
WHOIS records for yahoo-inc.com
don't seem to exist.

According to Yahoo's security page (emphasis mine):
I have personally received emails from
yahoo-account-services-us@cc.yahoo-inc.com
when it was necessary for them to contact me about my account. As the above note says, though, someone could still spoof this address like any other, so keep an eye out. You can probably contact Yahoo's corporate office, via this form to verify that an email is legit.
