I have known a lot of people being scammed off every bit of furniture even my family! But I have been wondering why they never allow there furni back or not even deal with the scammer.
With this reason habbo could look like A Scam Itself. Now Possibly the reason they dont give back there furni or track them down is because of profits. If lets say a scammer wants to scam your stock that you have borght then it works. You would want to get some furni back but cant so you have ot buy some more. In my opinon its a bit unfair even if you fell for it by accident. Also if you are banned from habbo perminatly then why dont you get a refund of the furni back? Yet Again profit.
I disagree and think habbo should buck up there ideas since its very unfair and making nothing but a game where you will lose money easally And Unfairly.
Do you think its right?

I dont get you? Do you mean like if you get scammed or hacked, you should get your furni back??
Well.. If thisis what you mean.. I dunno..
Its really unfair when people do get hacked or scammed and ahve all their furni taken, but at the end of the day, its usually their fault. Habbo shouldnt be responsible for you getting hacked, as they cant make sure no one is scamming 24/7.

And it will backfire, They will have about 100 requests a day saying
"WoA mY G0$ tEH HaX0R St0LE My FuRNi!!!1111!!467 I WaNT iT bK"
I know it would drive me crazzy

if habbo did give back scammed funi, it would lead to them them selves been scammed by staged scams, and would all become to complex

I doubt i can because who ever the hacker is has to go through 3 firewalls and a constantly running virus scanner.
Also I think you are immature in saying you wish, which means you are on the Hackers side which shows you are a loser like them

It would be nice to see it comming into action, however it will backfire and people will take advantage (example they could scam there own other habbos). Also who cares for those that get banned? surely they deserved it.

Well sometimes its an accidental mistake. Habbo can easally do something about. Record what was traded to a different person or put in a room. I know it could be you wanting to get the furni back but they could check what IP you use normally and find out their IP so then they can get the data from the trading or dropping and get it put back into your room and ban them. As long as you have changed your password. :)

Here she kicks off again . . .
1, Your account is YOUR responcability, Which means (For you Glitter & only you) the furni your bought is yours so you have to keep your account SAFE and don't accept anything online via messenger and other instant messengers or have an easy pass*word <-- Include numbers and CAPITALS, also never give out any clues to your pass*word and fall for scams!
Quote: Terms & Conditions.
1.3 You are responsible for the security and proper use of all your user names and passwords used in connection with the Website and must take all necessary steps to ensure they are kept confidential, secure, used properly and not disclosed to unauthorised people. You are responsible for all activities that occur under your password and account. You must inform us immediately if there is any reason to believe that your user name or password has, or is likely to, become known to someone not authorised to use it or is being or is likely to be used in an unauthorised way.
2, Habbo will lose out on money as a result in this. Habbo is a highly paid company that need us to buy credits. Habbo costs a fair bob to pay for.
and don't need to be refunding piece of furni as it is not there fault you have lost your furni.
3, Habbo don`t have the power to keep any account under there will. As i said in 1, your account is YOUR responability, As i have quoted in RED which you agree on when you register with habbo.
4, Habbo DO NOT refund items if you have got a perm ban. Habbo's SHOULD follow the Habbo Way and REFRAME from swearing or breaking any rules listed in the Habbo Way.
Plus i think thats a good thing that habbo don't refund furniture to habbo`s who break the habbo way, They don`t even deserve a DUCK.
Sorry if im being harsh but thats how it goes!

Rofl You tell her Re-call lol
They dont give furni back after you've been scammed because its kind of like insurance fraud. You could hire someone to take your furni, then you can claim you got scammed, they give you the furni back giving you double the furni. How would they know you set it up? Also habbo is a company so of course they want and need to make a profit. If its off of someone who is a jerk and does something to get himself bad, so be it. Fair Play if you ask me.

Those who get scammed should not be on habbo in the first place. They oviously did not read the rules which you have to do before even creating your habbo. i think they are being way to lenient on the person who was scammed; they should be banned from habbo just like the scammer.
