ΩCCΩ Posted January 7, 2009 Posted January 7, 2009 Did you recive a pm from a person named JoHn(I think)declaring he go a way to find nepoints? :sad01_anim: i would have attached the letter but i already deleted it from my inbox. Quote
jun Posted January 7, 2009 Posted January 7, 2009 That is spam If you receive another from him, please please please report his name to TNT. It is non permitted to send out neomails like that, nor find loop holes and cheat in neopets. That is definitely not a good neomail to receive. Quote
Stephé Posted January 7, 2009 Posted January 7, 2009 Did the message have any forms of a suspicious link attached or asking for your password? But from what you're talking about, it might be a scam of some sort Quote
ΩCCΩ Posted January 7, 2009 Author Posted January 7, 2009 yes, as i recall it DID ask for my password, it went like that. eehm Hi i found the best way to get neopints and items for free blablabla.then it said something like this, just send TNT (somekind of password though i dont recall) and your neoid and password and TNT will think you are a Staff member which will enable you to control neopets ids and you can steal money and blablabla.

jun Posted January 7, 2009 Posted January 7, 2009 either way that is a bannable offense, and because of Neopet's high standard, can lead to more then just a bann. These are things you need never do on Neopets 1. Find a 'Quick' way to earn neopoints. Earn neopoints like every one else, don't cheat 2. Stealing Neopoints or items, why would you take someone else item for yourself anyways? 2. Giving out your password or personal information. Its your account and only you should have access to the rest of the information 4. Go to links to sites you are unsure of that promote Neopoints. Unless it is a sponsor link from the neopets website, you should never go to a site that guarantees you money 5. Never accept mail from someone Claiming to be TNT and ask for your password. TNT can get your information if they needed, and they even say so. So any of this, you can go ahead and report and or delete. Quote
ΩCCΩ Posted January 7, 2009 Author Posted January 7, 2009 I already deleted but i wanted to share my experiance with the others. :helmet: remember be safe. Quote
YahuhItsJake Posted January 8, 2009 Posted January 8, 2009 Hmmm Just Report Him, Ive Had A Lot Of Those Sort Of Messages, Mostly Fake Logins. But Ive Reached A Highscore Of Freezing Accounts, My Current Level Is 22. Yay! Lol, I Only Started Two Days Ago Aswell. :) Quote
ChaoticFission Posted January 8, 2009 Posted January 8, 2009 Hmmm Just Report Him, Ive Had A Lot Of Those Sort Of Messages, Mostly Fake Logins. But Ive Reached A Highscore Of Freezing Accounts, My Current Level Is 22. Yay! Lol, I Only Started Two Days Ago Aswell. :) you get levels for reporting people? is there a point to this? and where can you check? Quote
*SG* Posted January 8, 2009 Posted January 8, 2009 Ya I didn't know that was an option O.o that's something new. Screen shot maybe as well? If users are gaining rank for freezing people would this account for the large number of unnecessary freezes? Quote
Unstream Posted January 8, 2009 Posted January 8, 2009 No there's no competition to freeze other members. TNT can't and wouldn't do that because it'd result in way to many people abusing the system. Quote
Superfly Posted January 8, 2009 Posted January 8, 2009 If this happened on the forums, PM a moderator with as much details as possible, including the name of the person to be banned. Quote
YahuhItsJake Posted January 9, 2009 Posted January 9, 2009 Omg... You People Take Things So Seriously, I Have Commited NO Unnesessary Freezes, Only On Those That Have Tried To Scam Me. Plus I Just Counted, And I Dont Think TNT Just Take One Look At Your Report Then Freeze. They Have To View The Evidence Aswell, Which Means That I Have Proof That I Havnt Been Report-Happy. Hey Wouldnt It Be Good Though If We Had A Freezing High Score Table? :P Quote
ΩCCΩ Posted January 9, 2009 Author Posted January 9, 2009 yup that would be cool and then what if they gave as magical kiko plushies and a biscuit paint brush and we take a munck from the....ok back to the subject I just wish that they wil stop though :crying_blow: Quote
Sara Posted January 10, 2009 Posted January 10, 2009 Hey Wouldnt It Be Good Though If We Had A Freezing High Score Table? :P To be honest, no. Like Unstream said: TNT can't and wouldn't do that because it'd result in way to many people abusing the system. Quote
Cara Posted January 11, 2009 Posted January 11, 2009 The next time someone neomails you for your password simply report it and delete the message. Then just sit back and relax, safe in the knowledge that you helped do your bit to get another cheater off the neopets site. Oh and Sara I agree with you entirely a freezing high score table would be a very bad idea. Though there will certainly be good honest people who would only report when they should, something like that would be to easy to be abused by the same sort of numpties who ask for your password in the first place.

imnotgeorge Posted January 13, 2009 Posted January 13, 2009 I personally always figured that report-happy people do what they do in the hopes of bogging down the system so much that they, the real cheaters, can get off scot free. Their plan looks like a sound success to me so far. Quote
