Nahh, You Guys All Have It Wrong.
My brother used to program for neopets, and i know when people are scamming. Anyone that says anything about giving anyone your password is wrong.
On some sites i have seen people with the right idea, but who turned it into a scam. The only way to hack into a neopets account is to trick the server into thinking you're on the neopets staff. People will tell you this (which is the truth), then say you have to send someone (them) in neopia your password. This is a total lie.
Neopets used to be easy to hack, but then they improved their server. In doing this, they changed their way of sending people password retrievals. They used to do it by email, but now they only do stuff like that through their neopets account ("theneopetsteam").
The old email address is actually still active. It's "neopwretrieval@techie.com".
More people than you would expect actually know this, but if they say anything about sending your password to anyone, they're just scamming you.
First of all, you need to trick the actual neopets server into thinking you're the original neopets team, and you also need to contact the original email address.
To do this, you just need your own neopets account, and your own email address.
You have to change your email address to "neopwretrieval@techie.com", the original neopets server address, on your neopets account.
Then you have to send an email to "neopwretrieval@techie.com" from your personal email address with the subject "retrieval" that looks like this:
Pwretrieval(username of the person whose password you want here)
Username(your username here)
Sendto(your email address here)
Then, you need to send an identical neopets message to "theneopetsteam" with the same subject line.
Changing your email to "neopwretrieval@techie.com" tricks the neopets database into thinking that you are a part of the original neopets team, and links your neopets account to that email address.
Sending "neopwretrieval@techie.com" this same email, after your neopets account is linked to their email confuses the database because both the old server and the new server are receiving the same message.
The reason you need to send them both your username is because then, your username gets mixed in with the neopets teams' usernames.
Once you send them that email, your email address, also in the message, will get mixed in with their database.
The database will then be convinced that you are a member of the neopets team (who have access to any username and password they want), and send you the password of the username you entered.
The reason for "pwretrieval" "username" and "sendto" is that those are the codes that the neopets team uses.
After you do this, within a week, you will get a neomessage from "theneopetsteam" with that person's user information, including username, password, email address, birth date, how long they have been on neopets, and any other information they have entered into neopets.
Once you get this neomessage, you can change your email address back to your normal one.
I've done this TONS of times.
P.S.!!!
Anyone who says you need to send your password to anyone IS DEFINITELY just scamming you!!! |
