So who's trying to hack my accounts?

[Fleur]

Someone who knows my hotmail account (most likely from this forum) has requested for my account usernames through Petpet Park... Should I be worried?

I have two-step verification on all my e-mails, so I don't have to worry too much, right?

I'm 100% certain that whoever is trying to access my accounts are from this forum, as this place is the only place I've given my e-mail out to. I guess it's time to change my paypal e-mail address...

(Sorry for making two threads in a row)

If you have a phone number verification you shouldn't be worried at all

I wouldn't use an email attached to any neopets accounts for business/forum use. At least I don't

Well, as a basic rule for PC safety, you have to use two e-mails at least.

One for stuff like neopets and anything related, and another one for important things (photos, real life friends, work, college...).

If you ask me, the safest e-mail out there is yahoo. Gmail is safe, too, if you ignore they'll read whatever they find on your inbox.


Now, if you're receiving stuff through those sites, it's because of unregisted e-mails. If you don't know what are them, use the search bar x)

Umm I don't know if this applies to you as well, but I received an email for a forgotten password reset a few hours ago. I was told it was probably somebody auto-scanning emails for accounts. Maybe it got to you? Idk, wishful thinking maybe?

Thanks everyone! I changed all my details for everything so it should be fine. :-)

I need advice regarding something similar as well.
I bought an account at the beginning of the year and put it associated with my business email.
However, I've received two emails saying that someone requested neopets usernames associated with that email as well as a password reset for one of the accounts on that email, considering its the only neo account on there, should i be concerned that the original owner is trying to access the account again, or would it be someone who is trawling emails?
