Yahoo boys should be called thieves. Period.
When you say someone is a Yahoo boy, you are simply embellishing their evil profession.
“Aponle ni Mola, Hausa ni Hausa nje.”
Meaning: Malam is an honorary word, Hausa is Hausa.
“Adape oro ni omo mi nfewo.”

Yahoo involves impersonation, lies and pretense to obtain money or anything of values from unsuspecting victims. That is theft.
So Yahoo boy is a euphemistic word. A thief is a thief.
