This is the only neo site I have my AIM address on, and I just got this blindingly pink and yellow IM:
IllI101: Hello Are you there?
IllI101: Hi, I just made a new AutoBuyer for neopets. It will make you up and over 100k a day! To Download go here... removed I worked long hard hours on it and need it spread so I dont feel like a waist.
Link edited so no one goes clicking on accident, I'm assuming it's a scam, or at least if it is an ABer it's against the rules anyway... so... am I supposed to report this to someone? Also wanted to give everyone a heads up that someone is browsing PPT.
Runedit: Removed the entire address, it's probably best not to imply where the link is from.

I got that this morning, there's always a chance of getting the wonderful spam bot when you post your s/n online. I just warned them and closed the window.

Somebody actually posted it in a few messages. Fast and helpful MODs junked it. I sent the link to a coding friend. It can indeed steal your account. I think it is Karma for those who try to cheat, but I am a bit 
about cheating.
My opinion: We do get a number of 'shady characters' here but the trustworthy and nice people at PPT scare them off pretty quick!

Yeah, I believe that is a handiwork of a lurker rather than an active member.
