Some people started neomailing me how I was selling some Uni Knight armor already when it says I've been playing for only 2 weeks... what should i say?!! XD

[Kyle]

Don't respond

[Charizard]

Mmkay. :X

[Kaitan]

You have to be very careful with nosy neopians. When you have the money to do so you should get a somewhat aged shell 6 - 9 months. People dont bother you after that point. 

[Nonexistent]

Tell them to get off their computers and go take a walk in the park

[Mikali]

You can also change your preference so that only Neofriends can neomail you.  

[Revan79]

lol at walk in the park.

[Hydrange]

+1 to the walk in the park

[Charizard]

XD I think I'll go with the Neofriends only option...

Oh yeah, maybe I'll see him! Cross Country everyday ftw through the central park

[Turkeyducks]

Why not just tell them that you made a new main? & then for them to mind their own business. 

[Charizard]

Maybe... but I despise liars. Whatevs, it's Neopets, it doesn't really matter if I lie or not.

[Majesty]

Tbh when someone fishy changes their preferences so only neofriends can contact it's even fishier and reportable. Just say it's a new main because your old one is perma'd or something.

Say that you changed accounts and made your current one your main as your old one was silenced.

Setting your neomails to neofriends makes you look guilty. x:

This is very true

[xintervine]

The worst thing to do is ignore or block because it makes you look like you're running away xD

 

Just explain to them that you're starting anew or something.

 

It's kinda like how this guy randomly was selling an Mskull on BD Chat when 2 weeks ago he had nothing. 

[Charizard]

Mmkay, because then he/she started trying to get me to give his/her user and pass. I reported him, and he might be iced already.Whew!

[Syntax]

This reminds me of the guy who apparently "walked in" to stamps and RSed a BSS.

 

But then he got frozen or something. Just tell the general public that you're rebuilding/starting over and declare it on your lookup. It's easier that way.

I remember that! The board was on TC for awhile until he got iced. Nobody believed him xD

 

He said something like he didn't even realised he rsed the BSS until he cleared his inventory. LOL

That's true.  I tend to change my preferences depending on who and why they're neomailing me.  I've had some neomail me for tips on games, and one user who constantly bombarded me in Spanish asking for me to resell a Gold Gem Negg I had bought off an auction.

Say it's a new main. Running away just makes you look more suspicious.

[xintervine]

x_ironic?

 

Good try but no  

 

x_ironic was obviously illegit from the start lol even though he claims to just make 900m in 3 months from 'epic reselling'

You can tell which cheaters are noob cheaters because of how hilariously bad they are at lying.

Yep, and they're usually the ones who show off their wealth and post everywhere which is stupid because then everybody more or less knows.

This. People are going to be looking at your account, especially if you have rare items in your trade or shop. Put a note on your lookup that says your account was hacked/frozen/scammed/whatever, but you've been playing Neo for X amount of time and that you make most of your NPs through restocking/sniping. Then direct them to your trade/shop "to help you rebuild."

 

You should also look like you care about your account. Have a user lookup, get some easy trophies/avatars, and dress up your pet. This goes a long way in making you look like a legit player.

 

I do all this whenever I start a new account and have never had anyone ask me how I got so-and-so item. In fact, I usually have people neomailing me offering to buy multiple items 'cause they feel bad for me.
