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.

You can get a virus just by IMing with someone? I thought they had to try to pass you a file or something. How do they send a virus through the chat?

The account not verified is a dead giveaway.

the strange thing is from the whole email, the objective of this faker is still not clear.

i laughed at the particular part where she says neopets needs to hold a staff meeting to decide whether to unfreeze an acount. you would think that if they place so much importance on the state of one's account, they wouldn't trust the freezebots so much.

I nearly choked on that one. Plus that they only vote on 10 accounts to be unfrozen?! What is it Neo Frozen-Survivor?! I don't think this person is at all a staffer, from that section alone.

Yeah, right. They all need to take a break from work to vote on ten people. What's so signifigant about TEN? Why not sixty-three, eleven or eight-hundred and sixty-six?
