[Lost Prophets]

Okies well the other day somebody on Instant Messenger chat on Habbo said "Can I DJ on your site?" I didn't know what he was talking about then he said "Your site "helpinghabbo.com" stupid enough that I was I went on the site and in about 5 minutes I kept disconnecting due to somebody logging onto my account, I managed to change the password before they could take any furni.

Its phishing.

Fake Client Log In.

ALWAYS look in the address bar, and check it says Habbo.co.uk.

what did you lose?

[Korronos]

Yeah, some noob sent me that but didn't try

My Freind JUST Now Told Me About That. She Said Ok I'll Visit It But I Just About Stopped Her. Thank You Alot! :o

[Lost Prophets]

It was wierd because the friend who was telling me to go on the site was actually the hacker? And I was actually speaking to him on msn at the time? So it was wierd.
He lost like 15 throne sofas but didn't lose any norms.

your fell for a fake login... just dont add people on msn and use yahoo, honestly this is coming from personal experience gmail and hotmail are the most insecure pieces of trash i have ever seen and this is coming from a guy who has hacked over 30 of these useless emails

[Jay.]

Lol. I can't use both MSN and habbo anymore. Laggs my computer up cuz i listen to music, look round the forum, play habbo and google random things :D

Gmail is more secure than bloody yahoo

lol

Lol this person is trying to phish, fakelogins don't work now, loads of people already know this and only about 30% of the Habbo players fall for this anyway.

[Xioup]

You'd be surprised how many people fall for phishers. ;)

[Mr-Trainor]

i was about to go on it.. but i thought again :D

theres alot of people who will keep asking you about dj'ing but they've stopped now since i didnt fall for it :p

so how does this exactly work javascript??? as my sister went on a site and it got here and she didn't even notice

[Meanies]

Surely thats not a fake login, since he never said he logged in on the site, simply that when he was on the site he kept getting disconnected due to someone else logging into the account, so surely its a session stealer?

[Stacker]

This person on IM sent out a invite saying "You scammin nub i saw you scam on this site" etc. I just removed him straight away. People scamming these day's! How low can you get. :(

Its just a simple php script.
Instead of creating a session, it just inserts your details into a database, or even just emails them to an email. Then it redirects you to a page saying that your d/ced.

I thought they patched that up?
Then again, I think the sessions only last up to 15 mins? As you always have to re authorise to do stuff now :(

Nope, It uses javascript to hijack the client window and redirects to a page that says disconnected or logged out and then when you click "ok" there is a fake, phishing page which uses a php script to write your details to a text file.

Its Clever, too bad I fell for one of these sites a year ago, I fell for a more of a session stealing site though.

[Daniel2143]

Fell for one of these 2 i lost 24 hcs :( which is alot to me

[PlERO-PPY]

I can't belive you stupid people fall for them these days... That scam came out like 1 year today.. They hacked Ecoutez with it..

[Smores]

very interesting thread, happened to me once.. except they only took my rares.
it s'ok though :D it wasn't worth much..

but I don't get I was playing habbo then I got disconnected a lot and it said you have logged into a fake computer. then me and the hacker were fighting to get onto the account. but I don't get how he could get my rares so fast and put it in his room quick? I have a lot of rooms and they are scattered everywhere. and I kept logging in so.. yeah

[HabboDeck]
