    Mind updating us on any new developments? This is a HUGE fear of mine.

    Well it looks like you're safe, for now, at least. Honestly I wouldn't stop using the account. It might make you look suspicious if you leave it untouched after being questioned. Just lay low with trading, on that account at least, for a little while.

    Tbh, I definitely wouldn't move the pet, or unlink main/sides from the profile (if they're on it or mentioned), or do anything to distance yourself from the pet, because it'll seem suspicious as all hell. I wouldn't advertise the pet for a few months @ least, with how long TNT is taking to deal with tickets. When you go back to trading, if the user comes back, tell them you sent in a ticket and TNT replied and said it was fine. If it's been long enough, it'll seem reasonable enough. It sucks that you've gotta wait, sure, but that is a risk of buying UCs, and it's better to wait and lose a trade than to get iced and lose the entire thing.

    EDIT: Was the pet moved off of the old account, or are you currently in possession of the account? How long ago did you tell them you got it, and how long ago did you actually get it? Do they match up? If your story matches up then you're definitely at an advantage, but if you lied to them and you get reported, TNT'll see that you lied and you're screwed. That is, if TNT actually cares...

    ugh my account got frozen

    That's $140 worth of UCs that got frozen now, since the other account that I bought got frozen recently as well.
    I'm so mad.

    Wow, they sent in a ticket? That's so petty :/ Who even cares is the person isn't interested in coming on the site again?

    They reported you after they said they wouldn't? I wonder if maybe they saw this and put 2 and 2 together? Idk.

    Either way I'm sorry that happened to you!

    Exactly! The owner didn't even care that they didn't have their pet anymore. It was literally hurting no one. I don't understand.

    I'm honestly thinking about quitting neopets over this. I'm just so frustrated that TNT will freeze people with hardly any investigation. Like sure, this account had good reasoning for being frozen I guess.. But my other account that got frozen, I wasn't even doing anything illegit on it. So I don't understand.

    But then to get an account unfrozen takes like 20 years and you have to sacrifice your first unborn child. It just doesn't make sense to me.

    Well they posted on a thread in the PC saying about how the pet might be stolen and the two people who I was planning on trading with saw it and could have been anyone else as well. So it's possible that other people may have reported. @_@
