The virtual pet website Neopets recently launched its own NFT to improve their meta universe architecture. It didn’t want to attract the attention of hackers and become a hot target. It was soon broken and data leakage occurred.

The Neopets team recently admitted that its website has been attacked by hackers, and the account information of 69million users may be at risk of disclosure. The leaked information includes user name, password, account information and IP address information.

Neo pets can be purchased through virtual currency earned on the website or real currency. Neo pet operates a paid play version, Neo pet premium, which also sells Neo products.
