bataclops Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 A friend of mine recently got her account hacked and TNT has been awfully slow about setting things right. Two of her pets have already been pounded/traded but her favorite one, a darigan peophin, is still on the account. So here's my convoluted plan: if someone neomails the account and asks if the pet is up for trade, maybe there is a different pet they would prefer to have. I could then create the pet, send it to the trader, and the peophin could make it's way back onto my account until things get sorted out. I'd neomail the account myself, but I'm afraid that because I'm a neofriend they probably won't trade just to be rude (this is a hacker after all). The account username is cls2959. Of course, any alternative ideas on how to get the pet would be greatly appreciated because this is asking an awful lot of someone else and I don't want to be a burden. What do you guys think?

Rune Valentine Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 Honestly? I would wait for TNT to sort it out. They're quite slow to respond to tickets, but they get to it eventually. When my main got hacked, it took 8 months to get it back, but I got it all intact. Another friend of mine recently got her account back, plus her UC Grey Kacheek that was taken from her account and transferred to the hacker's. (they even restored the stolen Neopoints from her account) By doing this trade, you're risking your own account of getting frozen, because all TNT is going to see is a hacked pet being passed around. So I would definitely advise against this, even if it's frustrating that all you can do is wait, TNT usually comes through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hrtbrk Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 Kaie is right! It seems like a big to-do when TNT has been reversing trades of stolen pets and giving them back to the rightful owners. Did your friend submit a form to freeze the account ASAP? It usually takes a few minutes to stop the intruder from messing about with the account.

Nataluna Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 *hug* you are a lovely NF to do that for your friend, but i would wait for TNT, recently they have been very good about getting hacked pets back to their rightful owners, :) wish your friend good luck, and hope she gets her account back soon!

bataclops Posted February 6, 2012 Author Share Posted February 6, 2012 Thanks guys! I never realized they have been able to get pets back to accounts that were hacked. This makes me feel much better :) I had just assumed that once a pet is traded or pounded it becomes the property of whoever happens to come into possession of it (like back in the day when people used to try and trade pets through the pound). She submitted a ticket two weeks ago but they haven't iced the account because it keeps showing up as online under my neofriends. Makes me angry everytime I see it, thinking about all the stuff they could be ruining on there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hrtbrk Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 Has your friend tried sending an abuse form? http://www.neopets.com/autoform_abuse.phtml?abuse=report. Sometimes it's faster than sending a ticket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bataclops Posted February 6, 2012 Author Share Posted February 6, 2012 I'm not actually sure which form she filled out so I will let her know. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
