ATTENTION ALL 1NP AUCTIONS PEOPLE!

Submitted by silverdragon on Tue, 11/08/2009 - 8:13am
I would suggest not doing 1np auctions for a while. Someone just managed to hack into my neofriend list and place a bid on each of my auctions - luckily Kirsty outbid them and the pbs are safe. Not long after I'd removed and blocked them, they did the same thing again on a new account. The usernames were fake22pen and hi_w_s. So yeah, BEWARE.

We don't know, he has friend requests blocked, and only a few select friends on there. Those accounts somehow added themselves *unsure* One managed to get bids in on all his auctions, the other he managed to notice and remove before they had chance. I'm sure I heard of this happening a few years back, someone found a way of getting around the system. Seems to be happening again.

Worth noting this happened to a friend of mine a couple of years ago too, so who knows if they are using the same methods as back then to abuse the system. Either way, unless you don't care about losing nps i'd avoid running them for a while
