The Javascript Hackings
Written by thunder_iron_prince

Today, on the day of 13th of September, in the year 2005, there has been a
number of hackings. The hacker, as of now, has no identity. He seems to hack
people by means of having a cookie grabber in his shop, and the accounts that
visit it and attempt buy something have their account information sent to him,
and then he puts the hacking information in their accounts. He has a simple
request: for the Neopets team to neomail him, and ask him how to stop this from
happening so easily. 3 neoboards have been created thus far, with a warning
about him. he seems to prefer using the account "free2play1" the most. the
current list of users he has hacked is as follows: ghfan4everxoxo gabby11112002,
aiyakhiori, free2play1, jgbruce, charizordrules1, texia, and pyroman91234. Some
of the more experienced users are saying that you can be safe, but you need a
damn good firewall.

I have just learned that he can make the cookies in userlookups as well. he says
"WAKE UP TNT ITS GONA GET WORSE...""this has existed for about 8 months... i
tried to tell TNT many times but their too snoby to listen to me!" He seems
agitated, like putting a large plate of meat in front of a hungry lion. "told
them they had several security exploits and they didn't want to do anything but
call me a kid and say their pros" another quote from the hacker. Apparently he
wishes to be known as an equal to the Neopets team. Still nothing bad has
happened to the accounts. He seems to just want to tell Neopets team of their
failure to prevent such acts. "don't worry about it though... im the only one
that knows how to do it i believe" another quote from the hacker.
9:17
The user known as "charizordrules1" has made a board asking why he is getting
neomailed about getting hacked. Someone on the board posted "One of the people
is posting profane images on peoples lookups. It's disgusting." Another, who
sounds suspiciously like a hacking posted "here have some more fun images" and a
link. Then he posted "got a ab if you guys want it?" the username is versioncare.
Guess that is another account that has been hacked. "There are tons of us.. o.o
we don't even know all of each other," quotes versioncare.
9:36
The user "charizordrules1" has made a board posting the following: I;ve been
told that I've recently been hacked and I'd like to know how this has been
possible, please would you look into this for me!? If you can lock this board
and post a message for me, I'm so scared right now, I don't want to be frozen
Anyone know of any staff members I could contact?" Terrible. All the fear these
innocent users feel.
9:44
At 9:25 a board was made, and the creator posted this: "So all the people
posting "inappropriate images" are not the hacker. They are just loosers who
uploaded the stuff to photobucket so that it isn't banned by TNT. Anyone can do
it. The hacker is a smart one. He's injecting -blocked- into the shop codes. His
SN: HackMasterNeoMan." (on aim, that is). A new user, with the username
____ad0____ has begun to post. perhaps it is the ad0 who was the very talented
hacker, a few years back. "adnd don't neomail anyone he said thats one of the
main ones right now he says he can get your INFO by neomail just a harmless
neomail." is what the ad0 person has posted. That's all for now, I will write a
conclusion tomorrow...
Conclusion
Well, this morning, everything has been forgotten. One of the first boards about
it is still alive somehow� very strange. But the hacker was frozen, and
everything seems to be ok. If you had checked the neocam, it showed some of the
staff members looking busy. �the guy was on at 2am nst and talking on the trade
boards to the people there saying he was 14 and he used to hack on neopets about
a year ago and they had his ip address and had him bocked for a while... im not
sure how hes back on or if he is really who he says he is but im sure neopets
will take care of it� is a quote from one of the people, this may clear
something up.
8:49 am
�im freeplay right now, just showing ppl what happened last night again... btw i
don't own freeplay but ill just goby hackmasterneoman� said the hacker. Guess now
he has a name. He uses the account �jgbruce� now, and he has posted: �lol i wont
take accounts with their knowledge anymore� Well, that�s going to put a lot of
minds to rest. YES! I got an interview with the hacker!
Me: Ok. Well, first, when did you figure out how to h@ck so easily?
Him: Ok its not a hack. It's a glitch that lets me put java script in my
shop/gallery/user lookup.
Me: Oh, I see. my mistake. In what way did TNT react when you told them about
their loop hole in the coding?
Him: They took forever to respond then told me that they had professionals and
that basically they didn't need my help. That was like 6 months ago or so.
Me: Sounds unreasonable on their part. As the saying goes, you have to crack
eggs to make an omelets. Did you plan any of this out ahead of time? He then
ended the interview with this to say: �Probably nothing... they want to hush up
everything.�
Me: Thanks for your time.
From the interview, it sounds like he was just angry with Neopets. And by they,
he very likely means the Neopets team. In conclusion, this is just like the
peasants revolt. A small group (I just covered the main person) going against a
higher power. Personally, I believe that TNT had this coming, unfortunately.
Thanks for reading and peace out, thunder_iron_prince.
