That's why when you do those transactions you have to login separately. So it's not as severe of a security issue as that, and probably not as much of a legal issue.

    Oh also, when the breach access was being sold earlier this year it was not advertised as including cc info, and i think that was the same entry point as 'nEo_tRuThS' has so I don't think it's that level of security.

    Anybody handling any sort of credit card data has to go through some sort of PCI compliance requirements. That data likely isn't handled at all by them and there's more than likely a third party sort of thing that manages it. I don't trust them, and I doubt they trust themselves, to keep a database of credit card information. There's poor judgement and security polices... and then there's just stupid lol

    Account pins are another thing that is stored somewhere different than the normal user data. Not sure why that is or where/how they store that information - but it's compartmentalized to a degree. All things considered, the breach wasn't TOO terrible and the site will be fine. I'm sure there are some interesting pieces of information regarding how certain things function on the site though within that source code.
    What's my definition of success?
    Creating something no one else can
    Being brave enough to dream big
    Grindin' when you're told to just quit
    Giving more when you got nothin' left

    I really want to know how the site works but I do NOT want that info from n_t. it's mostly just bc im nosy like that, though coders would have a lot of fun with that info!

    These past 2 weeks have been insane, 15+ wealthy players that I know of have gotten frozen. It makes me sad since I enjoyed their neoboard personalities & it's less players playing the game now.

    I just want to point out (you need an account to see links) and stored customer login credentials and payment details in plain text. It's not impossible TNT would do it.

    Every so often when I randomly feel like it and sign up for premium again, I always just create a new virtual card specifically for that purpose in a banking app (I use Revolut but there's plenty of others), so I don't have to worry about how safe TNT actually keeps users' card info (I'm scared to think about it) and can just delete/freeze it whenever lol

    Virtual cards are so great for auto-renewed subscription service trials in general, and maybe everyone else knew about them already, but I only recently started paying attention and it's been a game changer tbh.

    And giving your main card's actual info to Neopets just seems plain scawwy
