This is a strange conversation...

With someone who says she is a neopets staff member...
I don't know what she gets out of saying she is staff and not trying to scam me.

This is long so you might not want to read it.

I rock like my favorite toy is on sale for $19.95 says:

I rock like my favorite toy is on sale for $19.95 says:

mailto:anna@neopets.com (E-mail Address Not Verified) says:
Why would I fake it?
I rock like my favorite toy is on sale for $19.95 says:
I've seen many cases like this
I rock like my favorite toy is on sale for $19.95 says:
if the email isn't verified it's a scammer
mailto:anna@neopets.com (E-mail Address Not Verified) says:
I haven't gone into my email for today yet.
I rock like my favorite toy is on sale for $19.95 says:
Neopets has said no staff members will contact you by msn
mailto:anna@neopets.com (E-mail Address Not Verified) says:
That is if they arent looking to talk to some neopets members.
mailto:anna@neopets.com (E-mail Address Not Verified) says:
I went to that Forum, and looked up a couple names
mailto:anna@neopets.com (E-mail Address Not Verified) says:
I want to know what they like and dislike about Neopets.
I rock like my favorite toy is on sale for $19.95 says:
what forum? PPT?

mailto:anna@neopets.com (E-mail Address Not Verified) says:
Now, Neopets does not use any "Freeze-bots" We do all out freezing by hand. Mistakes are made and we can not help it.
I rock like my favorite toy is on sale for $19.95 says:
You can unfreeze people.
mailto:anna@neopets.com (E-mail Address Not Verified) says:
It isn't that simple really.
I rock like my favorite toy is on sale for $19.95 says:
How do I have proof you are a neopets staff member and not a fake?
mailto:anna@neopets.com (E-mail Address Not Verified) says:
I do not know, how could I provide proof? Even though I really have nothing to prove.
I rock like my favorite toy is on sale for $19.95 says:

mailto:anna@neopets.com (E-mail Address Not Verified) says:
I am not a offical Newsposter, I am in support.
I rock like my favorite toy is on sale for $19.95 says:
then how about you unfreeze a friend of mine?
mailto:anna@neopets.com (E-mail Address Not Verified) says:
As I said before, It isn't that simple.
mailto:anna@neopets.com (E-mail Address Not Verified) says:
We have to compose a list on who might get unfrozen
mailto:anna@neopets.com (E-mail Address Not Verified) says:
Then we have a staff meeting, with the other support Staff.
mailto:anna@neopets.com (E-mail Address Not Verified) says:
We vote on 10 people to get unfrozen.
I rock like my favorite toy is on sale for $19.95 says:
Well your boss "Adam" checked out fiddelysquat's account and almost unfroze her...
I rock like my favorite toy is on sale for $19.95 says:
I have many friends that got frozen innocently.
mailto:anna@neopets.com (E-mail Address Not Verified) says:
We cannot prove innocence, there had to be something they did.
mailto:anna@neopets.com (E-mail Address Not Verified) says:
Well, it might have been mistaken for an extra account.
mailto:anna@neopets.com (E-mail Address Not Verified) says:
What was her username?
I rock like my favorite toy is on sale for $19.95 says:
fiddelysquat's username was fiddelysquat

Lol, Ok.
I rock like my favorite toy is on sale for $19.95 says:

I rock like my favorite toy is on sale for $19.95 says:

mailto:anna@neopets.com (E-mail Address Not Verified) says:

mailto:anna@neopets.com (E-mail Address Not Verified) says:
You posted the converstation on PPT
I rock like my favorite toy is on sale for $19.95 says:
yes I did.
I rock like my favorite toy is on sale for $19.95 says:
I wanted to see others opinions to see if you were a fake or not.
I rock like my favorite toy is on sale for $19.95 says:
I don't know if I can trust you or not.
I rock like my favorite toy is on sale for $19.95 says:
But it seems strange that you aren't scamming me
mailto:anna@neopets.com (E-mail Address Not Verified) says:
Why would I be scamming you?
I rock like my favorite toy is on sale for $19.95 says:
there have been lots of people having stuff like mailto:david@support.neopets.com (Email Address Not Verified) scamming people.
mailto:anna@neopets.com (E-mail Address Not Verified) says:
Well, I am not scamming you, they probably are fake.
mailto:anna@neopets.com (E-mail Address Not Verified) says:
I am not
I rock like my favorite toy is on sale for $19.95 says:
what are some other powers then support you have on neopets?
I rock like my favorite toy is on sale for $19.95 says:
can you change userlookups?
mailto:anna@neopets.com (E-mail Address Not Verified) says:
Well, I joined the Neopets support team around December 2003
mailto:anna@neopets.com (E-mail Address Not Verified) says:
No.
I rock like my favorite toy is on sale for $19.95 says:
why hasn't Adam been online for 4 days?
mailto:anna@neopets.com (E-mail Address Not Verified) says:
He mainly goes on Theneopetsteam
mailto:anna@neopets.com (E-mail Address Not Verified) says:
We mostly go on it all at the same time
I rock like my favorite toy is on sale for $19.95 says:
why has he beaten the fire faerie? even when you get the fire faerie as a challenger you still can't battle her..
mailto:anna@neopets.com (E-mail Address Not Verified) says:
There are ways around that
I rock like my favorite toy is on sale for $19.95 says:
you said you would get fired if you posted on the news...
I rock like my favorite toy is on sale for $19.95 says:
what if you posted for like 30 seconds and then changed it back to normal?
mailto:anna@neopets.com (E-mail Address Not Verified) says:
I can't do that, based on the page views, a user is looking at the news page every 5 seconds
I rock like my favorite toy is on sale for $19.95 says:
and that user would be me
mailto:anna@neopets.com (E-mail Address Not Verified) says:
Meaning a different user is looking at the news page every 5 seconds
mailto:anna@neopets.com (E-mail Address Not Verified) says:
it would be seen by more than you
I rock like my favorite toy is on sale for $19.95 says:
uh...
I rock like my favorite toy is on sale for $19.95 says:
what about a very old news page?
mailto:anna@neopets.com (E-mail Address Not Verified) says:
You can't edit them.
mailto:anna@neopets.com (E-mail Address Not Verified) says:
Well you can but it takes a bit more than the normal ones
I rock like my favorite toy is on sale for $19.95 says:
so what is your other username other then theneopetsteam?
mailto:anna@neopets.com (E-mail Address Not Verified) says:
The support staff normally doesn't have one with Admin powers
I rock like my favorite toy is on sale for $19.95 says:
well?
I rock like my favorite toy is on sale for $19.95 says:
what is it anyways?

Very strange o_O

lol... it sounds ... strange.

but like I said to someone before,
when it says the email is not verified then obviously that person doesn't actually own the email.

It took me a month to find out how to verify my msn name.

Tue Jul 06, 2004 11:23 pm

Adam, I appreciate the thought, but now she probably thinks I'm a conniving idiot.


For those of you who don't know, I was frozen for sending two items to my friend's new account to help him back on his feet. His other account had been frozen for duping items. They froze me for giving him two items. :roll:

Tue Jul 06, 2004 11:31 pm

Nope. Totally 100% dung. :) She's not a staff member.

I could say many things to prove she's not, and while not many of you would believe me, just trust me on this. ;)

Tue Jul 06, 2004 11:34 pm

She said that her username is bettyboop214.
She might want to get this person frozen...

*chokes Liz for using her quote* Don't EVER use that quote! Uh...*lets Liz down*

I highly, highly doubt that this person truly works for TNT in any capacity.

It is repeatedly stated that no one from TNT will ever contact anyone via instant messenger or any way other than neomail (only from theneopetsteam) or official email and will never ask for any of your information.

While it is true, from reading the conversation that this person did not try to scam you, they may just be setting you up. You know, gain your trust, chat a few times and then try to get some information out of you.

Also, do yourself a favor and run your anti virus, if you have separate stinger (can get at Mcafee for free) run that and your spyware detector. I trust just about no one on any instant messenger. Someone I know (not well, but do know) was im'ing with someone they thought they could trust and was sent a back door trojan. Yes, the account was stolen and everything was taken, because the person didn't know this was done to them.

As always, don't im or email with anyone you don't know (and even some people you do know!). I keep my im blocked and an away message on, just in case and almost no one knows my email (not even the one I use just for talking to people I don't know well).
