Total Suspision

I was talking to some random person who like my username a little while ago, and they claimed to hae made 1.3 mill in 3 days. after we chat he bough 40k worth of items from my shop and i'm a little nervous for my account being frozen again for the same reason before but this time i'd be innocent >.< i blocked the person, made all the items in my shop UB, and left the NP in my till but should I worry even more? I dont wanna be frozen unless this dude did use multi accounts, ABers, scammed people, ect.
btw, the user is twinsofsteel, check out his account
EDIT: THIS is why:
5. If you cheat on Neopets games or use cheat programs, including non-Neopets software or programs, to play the games we will freeze your account. In addition, NeoPets may freeze any other account that has directly or indirectly benefited from the use of such programs.

Well I don't think he scammed you or will get you frozen. Just because he bought items from your shop means you have a good shop I would think.
EDIT: I saw you just put benefited, well TNT won't freeze you if you email someone from TNT soon and explain why you are freaked out.

I'm already trying to contact Feli, since I heard from her at other forums earlier today. If he did break the rules I want Feli to just get rid of the neopoints and items all together.

That's not impossible to make 1.3 in 3 day. People on neopets give out money... I don't know how much I've given Adam (Definately over 10 million)... I mean cmon... I've made 1.3 in a couple hours before. Really, don't freak out.

I would be superstition, how old is his account and does he have any trophies, cause I can't make a measly 10 k in one day. If he could do that hes a good gamer. But Im suspicios, don't even touch that till. no matter how desperate you are,

as far as i just checked he is an auction sniper, and no, not much good with trophies, only cell block, chat, and snowwars i think.

I would not be worried at all. So he bought from your shop..wow. Maybe he was feeling generous at the time? I know I sometimes do. I've given away a Dark Faerie Mushroom and a Halloween Pb to users before.

Hey Knives think about givin be a faerie pb, that would be sooo nice of you

I wouldn't worry about it -- it's possible to make 1.3 mil in a day through auction sniping or restocking -- and I definitely wouldn't report him or anything like that. I don't think that rule applies to scammers buying stuff from your shop, at least not as long as the stuff was fairly priced (if he was a scammer and he bought a bunch of 10,000NP omelettes or something, then TNT might think you were in on it). Bottom line: don't worry about it. You're being a little too paranoid considering you have no proof at all that he's a scammer.

He could be up to something but who knows what. Just be careful when strangers show up and try to gain your trust. Don't give him any personal information about yourself. Remember this, if anything looks too good to be true, it definitely is!

hmmm.....perhaps he has a fake shield, both his pets are older than 3 days too....just a thought

Well I got frozen for benefiting from a scammer's activities (I didn't know about them) - but that was items mostly, and some NP on the post. Nothing like what you've described. Then again.. tnt aren't very fair sometimes.

Look at his account name twinsofsteel, I believe he has an older account something...steel that he transferred the 2 pets over from.

As long as the things in your shop were priced fairly and you and he do not share the same IP address, I really don't see a problem here at all. It would be much different if you were trading him a ton of junk items for tons of nps. But, I see nothing wrong with someone buying things from your shop--if you had no prior connection with that person's account and the things you sold were close to market value.
And, 1.3 million in 3 days is not impossible to do. I have made a million in a weekend before--by reselling easy to sells. Not every weekend and not even most weekends. But, at least a few. In fact, I made about 700K last Saturday. Most of it was pure luck because someone was leaving Neopets and priced everything she had at 1000 nps--including her rainbow neggs.

It looks like somebody who KNOWS neopets on a new account.
