Yeah, people have been doing that for a while now...usually there is one every week.

It is highly illegal and TNT monitors transfers like that and ices both accounts because usually the person buying it has the same user name on Neopets.

My cousin did it and got an IP ban and a written LETTER from the neopets lawyers telling her that if she even goes on the site again, she will be prosecuted.

That's some serious s***!!!

But IP bans and IP recognition is easy to bypass... just use a lv5 anon proxy or a SOCKS host - in either case, if npets wanted to know who's standing behind that, they'd need to contact the owner of that server, and this is unlikely to work unless it was used for hacking, etc... (not to mention that it's possible that several users used that server to access neopets at the same ti'me )

If people can sell Gunbound accounts and avatars in ebay, why can't we do the same for neopets ?

but stupid neopets do not scare me tho I monitered, yes people MONITERED! by a member of the staff in a grand total I have had over 40 frozen accounts now any account I make they very closely moniter me to see if I cheat and they always catch me while otheres get away with it so now I am condemned to a non cheating neopets account

It is in the Terms of service and rules that you sign up for when you join neopets. It says that you cannot use or sell ANY Neoptet related items, points, accounts, ect. If you do it is in violation of copyright and they can come at you with guns blazing. Now that neopets is owned by a corporation (Not Adam), they have the resources to prosecute anybody violating the copyright laws.

It sucks, but it is a harsh dose of reality.

No worries though, I set my cousin up on a proxy and she has been on an account for over 4 months now. tee hee.

OMG!!! That's enough to get 10 livings!!!

Now that's just dumb, u can use some 1337 progs to get that in a (relatively) short ti'me with no effort... someone must be REALLY too rich (on real cash, that is...)

[bargain]

I wouldn't spend a di'me, it just comes all free with cheating
And Neopets is a stupid GAME!!!! It's not like it's a million dollars or something(they wouldn't sell a million dollars, but that's crap).

[XenoCyde]

u needa life if ur gunan buy that for that amount of money lol

[Storm]

omg the only ti'me I ever have 181 dollars is after my birthday and no way in CENSORED id spent in on NP. thats just stupid lol

[Hydrogen]

even though all the risks are out there, its not a bad way to make cash..everyone can use a little cash , I know I sure could

[Krnsaber]

Look in the tutorial section. I was using a proxy just a second ago

[Charlie Hustle]

why would anybody want to buy neopoints? neopets items in stores are a ripoff you never win anything anyways. if you want np just find an autobuyer and you'll rake in at least 100k a day I know I do
