Scamming/Hacking – A White Rabbit’s Hackers Point of View by ladymcalpine2001

The name’s ladymcalpine2001. I’ve been with Neopets for 21 months now, and I’ve enjoyed it immensely. But I’ve been the victim of 9 account hacks – my pet, babatasha, is the sole survivor of those 9 hacks. All my other pets were frozen/deleted.

My stupidity was the cause of the first 2 hacks – scammers if you will. The third, fourth and fifth times were through who I thought were TRUSTED Neofriends. Sixth was through someone deciding my account with 2.8 million NP would be good to share, which resulted in it being frozen. Seventh and eight times were through blatant smartasses being “cool” on Neopets. And the Ninth was only recently…

What They Don’t Want You to Know About Scams by fiddelysquat

There is a 99.99% chance that you have absolutely NO IDEA who I am, and I don’t blame you, really. My username is fiddelysquat, and I’m setting about the task of making Neopia a better place. I plan to do this not by reporting every scammer and freezing every hacker, I plan to educate Neopets players. Please, don’t hit the back button just yet: I plant to teach you some lessons not only valuable on Neopets, but valuable in life outside of Neopia.

People are always writing articles that simply list the ways of being scammed, and telling you not to fall for them. I have yet to see an article that answers the single most important question a human being can ask. Why? Why is it impossible to generate neopoints? Why cant there be a program out there that multiplies items and such? Being the inquisitive young girl I am, I set about to find out for all of you.

A Guide to Not Get Cheated by BloodSucker1st

I know what it is like to be cheated. I know what it is like to loose my account to some person who made me tell my password, well here’s a few ways to stop it:

People Who Want Your Password:

Never ever give anyone your password, even if they offer you hundreds of thousands of neopoints, whether they give you the neopoints or not, once they find your password they log into your account and take items, neopoints and anything else, they then log back onto their proper account and sell the items and keep the neopoints… You will be left with nothing. (Remember do not keep your account because the more neopoints you earn and try to set your account back up the more they will take, if you really need your account change your password straight away.)
