Hello please could you look after my accout for seven day while I go on holiday I have a lot of money in there so please be an honest person!!!! Thankyou emily x
I got this neomail. Should I report it and delete the message?

this is a bad scam that you can't report. She does that so YOU can get frozen!
i'ld just respond: "Sorry, i'm not doing this since i don't want to risk the danger of you reporting me!"

Better yet, just don't reply. Ignore, delete, do whatever you have to do.

or you could just tell her that if she wants her pets to be treated well, she has to put them in the NeoLodge!

I reported the message, then the person sent another saying we needed to exchange passwords. She'd pay me 90k per day to do it. I reported this one as well.
The account has now been frozen
They actually read my email and took action, and more importantly, they didn't freeze me either
Come here TNT.............
They have gone up a huge notch in my books today

I just delete those kinds of neomails. I don't reply to New Member neomails. I only reply for those who asks kindly, and seems no other surprises under their sleeves.

I reported, the user was frozen, all is well again. One less scammer to worry about (unless she makes a new account and tries again with someone else)

I got a neomail like this once. I just report them, then carry on with my business

When will the scammers learn?

hmmm. i don't get it.. what was the scammer trying to do? freeze people?

No, the scammer's trying to gain access to another user's accounts.
When they say they'll pay for petsetting, they always say something like, "I'm giving you my password to watch my pets, you have to give me yours so that I know you're honest."
Then they empty out the victim's account, and that's the end of it.
