It's been going around that many people have been getting iced lately. Be very caerful. Don't click any links anyone sends you and try to stay away from the user shops and profile pages. There are cookie grabbers going around. If you know any other pages that can be dangerous please post telling which pages to look out for in this topic.

Also if you were frozen for buying/selling please PM Brad.

Clicking links off of codex and viewing images on codex is safe. But be very careful about anything sent to you over msn or other sites.

Thanks for the heads up!

[freakout0]

interesting... so they freeze you for going on users profiles or shops and getting cookie grabbed.. it's kinda neopets fault there. ;x

[galxyclaw]

Be careful everyone. I'm lucky I didn't get frozen. But I didn't go user profiles or shops. Probably explains why.

Wwwwwwwwwhy on earth are you excepting PMs in a staff-like manner then you mook?

[Brad]

Oh my lovely, stop switching between being staff and not-staff. It's confusing for my little mind.

I'm done with being staff, I don't have the time, energy, or desire. Don't worry yourself

Wwwwwwwwwhy on earth are you excepting PMs in a staff-like manner then you mook?

Because even if I'm not staff, I sometimes have to do staff-like things. Get on msn and I'll explain better.

that's the risk with buying/selling nps, most likely, you will be frozen unless you hide the nps in a spare account for a month or two with a anon/high anon proxy. Chances are if you do that, even if the neopoints were cheated and the person found to be "selling nps" gets frozen, the nps will be safe. Just my 2 cents from selling nps

Fair enough, but when people who have never bought/sold/used programs/'ever shared their usernames' are being frozen, something's amiss.

Never ever? Or not in a while?

Word is there was a disgruntled tnt employee who found out he was getting fired and *accidently deleted an entire batch of neo accounts.

Lol, you got tricked. That isn't the truth, I guarantee you that, you heard that from someone who was pissed they got frozen and didnt want to admit that they cheated

Never ever Chris The sheer majority who have had this happen have never sold or bought nps/pets/etc and had no activity on their account which would have made it look that way. Many didn't even use programs or certainly hadn't in 6+ months. Many hadn't logged into their account in MONTHS but were frozen at the same time for the same reason.

Well... I dont know what to say to that

[Vegas]

Where have you heard that from?

Lol ye I just made that up. Was thinking of starting a rumor on the neoboards to start a panic but I dont think anyone would believe an account that's just 2 weeks old(my oldest currentl). ><

Lol that's actually really funny you should try to spread that, I bet people will believe you too haha

[Vegas]

If someone had an older account that would make it look more credible. My should be 46 monther main got iced 2 weeks ago. ><

Well... the thing is. No one thing links us.

For all of us, it was just our main account, our sides are fine - this means that if they froze by IP they'd have got our sides too.

Some of us didn't even say they had a neopet account anywhere on codex, let alone sharing the name of their account - this means it probably isn't someone in higher ranks going off info they find.

Some of us hadn't been on their account in ages - suggests that it wasn't coincidence that we were all frozen at same time.

Not all of us were neofriends or had sent each other items to lend - TNT can chain freeze based on a cheater giving something to an account because it gives them an advantage. But some of us never had an ounce of contact with each other.

Some people were frozen for this same incorrect reason despite signing up to codex after they'd been frozen.

Which means we can deduce it's got nothing to do with codex It's because you're all on AOL, shame!!!
