Most intricate scam I've seen in a while o_o..
The message: Hello. I am a Neopets player who has been frozen twice by TNT. I've created a hack for people, who like me, are sick of playing Neopets for hours and hours to earn stuff. No, I am not a scammer. I've made enough Neopoints for myself, and now it's time to help others. What my portal does is generate 20,000,000 Neopoints in your bank account. By logging into my portal, a php request is sent to the neopet's server. It bypasses their encryption and sends a false request to "deposit" 20,000,000 Neopoints into your bank account. Once you login to my portal, the process will begin. Please note, I am hosting this off a free site, and therefore it will take up to a day to process your request - my server gets hundreds a day! Login Here! They actually speak computer speak.. o_O...

Looks like another case for the "If it looks too good" rule. =/ I wonder how many they've already gotten with it.

~ May ~ Woah... Isn't that very well formulated, well thought and.. Let's face it, even reasonably sounding? I mean, there are hundreds of frustrated people out there and we KNOW some people have been transpassing TNT's so called "security"... Thinking like that it could aswell be true - but obviously it's not

this is why we all say knowledge is power with the right knowledge you can easily figure out that the message is a scam

tbh that is actually fairly accurate as to how you would go about trying to hack neo, except i doubt that hosting something on another server helps at all which is the key to knowing its a scam

I actually thought that myself when I read it lol. I was like.. half the junk items I buy these days are at least 2 mill... (Just paid 1.5 mill for a freaking Magenta Neopets Mug) 200 mill is a much better number! [center][url=http://temptryst.deviantart.com/][/url][/center]

That is so weird. The "the talk in complete sentences" part. I rarely see scammers that smart.

I don't know if they are a scammer or telling the truth, but to me it would not be worth the risk. Saying they've been frozen twice is enough to scare me away. I've already lost one very dear account, I would never do anything to put my remaining one at risk! Anyway, I think gaining it all that easily would take some of the challenge (and fun) out of it. What's it worth to have a great gallery or shop if you did nothing to earn it? I don't think I'd find it as satisfying. Now, on the other hand, if a friend just wanted to GIVE me 20 million... :P (I'm still poor enough that that sounds like a huge amount to me. I can't even dream that big!) :o ~ Love books?
