Conversely they could use common sense. Almost every time that a "Exchange this special token for an uber godly item" event has come out, hackers have had some way of manipulating the packets going in and out from the NPC. What the obvious step would be to counter this, is to know that these will be prime targets for exploits and they should take countermeasures on ALL these new NPC types.
They could also use more trade-in NPCs like the cake V Pie rewards, but that's annoying even for normal users, but it was still harder for hackers to exploit.
They could also make it less obvious that they copy and paste data by NOT OVERWRITING THEIR FIXES FROM PREVIOUS PATCHES.
