Hang Out and Post

I got it too. *hits report button and awaits the fireworks to happen*

[Tyler.]

I didn't get anything

but I know it's a scam

[-Ryan]

Yeah I know it' a scam but am I supposed to change my password now or can they not send cooke grabbers in PMs?

[Tyler.]

If you didn't open it you should be fine

the can sneak cookie grabbing code into PMs

[Domino]

Yeah. That was definetly a sketchy message. I'm glad it got deleted before I opened it, if they can put CG codes in PMs...I thought it was only if you clicked on the link... :worried:

[Spritzie]

It's amazing the stuff some people try. I still have a hard time comprehending it.

[Domino]

Yeah...I dunno. And then you usually end up getting frozen sooner or later, so it's just a lose lose situation for everybody.

[Spritzie]

And people still do it. I guess I just don't understand trouble-makers. :laughingsmiley:

[CAV of Gang Green]

Crap, I opened the message. Now what do I do? Change password?

[Spritzie]

Someone said on the post were this was reported, that it wasn't a CG. It was just someone trying to get you to go to a different page, and enter your information (username/password) so you should be okay.

[CAV of Gang Green]

Ok good then. *removes hand from alarm trigger*

[Spritzie]

I thought the same thing. I opened it up to report it.

[CAV of Gang Green]

That's what I did. I wouldn't be surprised if this guy is banned.

[Spritzie]

A mod removed everything and banned them. And they had a Neopets account listed on their profile. Someone said they checked, and it had been frozen as well.

[CAV of Gang Green]

Good. Now everything is back to normal.

[Divya Bean]

Yayyy! I got that message too and I was freaked out so I just deleted it. Then I saw all of these posts about it and I was like PHEW! :laughingsmiley:

[Swim freak]

hey people! haven't been on in awhile! sorry about that the third quarter just ended so I've had a lot of last minute grades to throw in. But i saw the email notification thing, i knew it was a scam and when there was no notification on TDN I knew it had been taken care of :P

[CAV of Gang Green]

SF, don't let me down. You've been inactive from HAMS. Don't forget to tell us why before you vanish.

 

In Random Chit Chat, you will notice I gave a review to How to Train Your Dragon. For those whom didn't see it, check it out! That was the first time I went to an IMAX theater...

[Anisha]

I got the message too. I hope nobody really believed it.

First of all, it was so clear that it was just a piece of junk. I got so annoyed that I deleted it. It seems like you guys are getting it too. It said something about becoming a Neopets admin. I didn't read the whole message. If I am getting any other spams, I am going to report it, for sure. <_<

[-Ryan]

The stupidity of their attempts ae getting worse... :/

I was noticing that too. I am curious though, as to why they think people would fall for that kind of thing. It's very clear that it's a scam.

[-Ryan]

Next they're just gonna ask us fo our passwords. xD

[Spritzie]

And that's the biggest give away of all, when people start asking for passwords. What's sad, is probably a lot more people than we would think, fall for these types of things.

[-Ryan]

Yeah. I hate it when newbies fall for this than don't ever rejoin.

 

 

Anyway, can we change the subject? Scams give me nightmares. o.o

[Spritzie]

I can understand that.

 

Let's see... subject change...

 

Well, here's a random question about the Altador Cup, since I know you get into it:

 

The Yooyus... are they given out as prizes every year? And it seems, according to the Petpet Puddle on Sunnyneo, that a different color is given out each year. Does that mean that you can't buy a regular Yooyu, then paint it with a Petpet PB of the available colors? (I've never been around Neo when they were doing the AC before.)
