    Has this happened to you yet

    Apparently recently on Neopets alot of people can't log into their sides or their mains, for whatever reason, I believe it is just a glitch because I clear my cookies every hour or so, and I can't log into my main or one of my sides it is strange

    Or maybe it's because I'm selling accounts again.

    Could be, but I don't think you have access to my accounts

    Taken from another website:

    Basically, a lot of people's neopets accounts have had the following two changes made:

    1) The e-mail attached to their account has been changed in a specific way: by the addition of a string of randomized characters before the @ symbol. (Example: (you need an account to see links) may become (you need an account to see links))
    2) The passwords of said accounts have been similarly affected, with a string of random characters simply added on to the end. (Shoyru may become Shoyru2g5rif.)

    RIGHT NOW, WE ARE NOT CERTAIN THIS IS A SECURITY ISSUE. Several things aren't adding up:

    1) Many of the changed e-mails do not actually exist. It is normally impossible to finish changing the e-mail attached to your account if what you type in does not exist, because you have to go to the new e-mail to confirm.
    2) No one is reporting anything stolen as of yet.
    3) Instead of mostly reasonably-rich accounts being targeted, there appears to be no pattern.

    Instead, this may be a particularly scary glitch, or a script-based prank along the lines of the Pant Devil Pages from 2009 (where you would visit a page and suddenly all your NP would be withdrawn) or the random-named grundo creation from a while back (where you would visit a page and a randomly-named green grundo would suddenly be born on your account). If you're using a free internet e-mail provider, then taking the following steps may be helpful:

    1) Check and see if your e-mail has been changed. If it has, DO NOT LOG OUT.
    2) Go and see if the new e-mail already exists. If not, make it.
    3) Send the password retrieval form.
    4) Ta-da.

    If at any point you can't complete this process, then you'll need to send a ticket. BE FOREWARNED THAT IT'S VERY LIKELY TNT WILL FREEZE YOUR ACCOUNT IF YOU DO THIS in order to protect it from scammer activity. If you don't already keep a hoard of information about your account, now's the time to go get it, because if you are frozen you will need it to get back in. This guide has a list of info you may need to regain access should things go sour.

    Do you know if it happens randomly or only after you login? I just bought a bunch of unreg email and will go crazy of the email changes.
