:Helpful Tips:Guild Stuff:Dragon Eggs:
Remember, always be smart around Neopets with your secret word, and they way you buy items! Always be on the look out for scams. Say for example, someone says they'll give you an item only if they give you an item first. Ask them to prove that they have said item by putting it up on the trading post, and if they don't or refuse to do so, then they are most likely scamming you! Report! Also, if someone claims to put an item for real cheap in their shop, and their background is black, be sure to highlight the entire page to see the price, for they may be trying to scam you! Always check the Shop Wizard to see if their claim is true, about it being cheap.
If someone asks for your secret word, and/or are pretending to be a Neopets staff member, don't fall for it! They are just wanting to hack your account! Be sure to report them to theneopetsteam. If someone IS a staff member, they will have this message on the bottom of their lookup:
Click and drag to your URL address bar to full view it.
Example from Borovan's userlookup
And NO Neopets staff member will EVER ask for your secret word! If you go to a non-neopets site (always check the url address bar!) that asks for your Neopets login, go BACK to Neopets and do the following:
If you're going on vacation, and need your pets taken care of, just book them a visit at the Neolodge. Never look for 'babysitters'. They just want your account. Don't even ask a friend to look after your account. Although some friends really are trustworthy, some will not be.
Some try to be smart and get you to post your secret word on the Neoboards or Neomail. They'll say something like:
Hey! Look, the filters make your secret word look like asterisks! ********** See?? It's totally safe to post your words!
This is not true. They will get other people (or use other accounts they made) to "back up" this false fact. Your word will not be posted as asterisks, because everyday words are used for secret words. By the way, make sure you create a secret word combined of a word and lots of numbers and symbols. Or a really hard and difficult vocabulary word that isn't common in everyday speech. This is the same for your pin numbers!! NEVER EVER use your REAL pin numbers and NEVER give them out to ANYONE.
If you're moving one of your pets to one of your side accounts, remember to use the transfer method! This is much safer than transferring through the pound like before this system was set up. This will prevent your pet from getting snatched by poundsitters (people who manually refresh in the pound looking for pets) or poundgrabbers (detailed programs created to grab pets from the pound, which is against the rules).
If you ever need help with something, don't be afraid to go over to the Help Chat, where people will be able to answer your questions! It's always good to read the FAQ page too!
