HFFM.co.uk Money Scam

[WeAllLoveClover]

Rumours have been circulating that HFFM and its owner Carnio have set up a money scam claming they have to now pay for a PPL licence.

http://www.hffm.co.uk/web/ppl.html

Are we actually donating to pay for a PPL or are we paying for a Games Console for Carnio? The Owner of HFFM has once again put a sad plea for donations, is he ever going to pay for something out of his own pocket?

Maybe were being a bit harsh on Carnio? Maybe he’s just an idiot who has been fooled by some sad little kid trying to scare him? But one last thing is, if Carnio is being asked to get a PPL why isn’t habbox, they are a far more popular site, same with CH it all seems a little too suspicious for me.

Anyway what are your thoughts?

This infact is not a scam, and it must be paid.

This also isn't a news story. I don't think they're in the habbit of lieing, especially as this time of thing can you get put in prison for a significant amout of time ...

No scam, its true, ClubHabbo have there POSSIBLE last show on atm.

Quite upsetting really, after the hard work going into these sites

[TopManTim]

LOL hi mr clubhabbo/some fansite no-one knows about spreadin ****

ever thought to research before stirring pots? ever thought to ask other radio fansites if they have also recieved the bill?


and what are you talking about 'he please for money again' when has he plead for money before :S

[Skajo]

Ha.

Thing is, they'll have to pay a license for each song that they play yes? It can't be right if they pay £200 and that's it.

It doesn't make sense to me.

Well the thing is, PPL is a private company who sort out paying the revenue for the artitists. They do not enforce the law also do you really think that youd be put in prision for running a online habbo fansite which is non profit when HMPS is alread overloaded? No i dont think so.

[Romanity]

Each license is worked out on an individual basis depending on useage, bandwith, visitors etc... However the starting deposit is £200.

I dont see why a fansite should have to pay the £200 itself when the radio benefits everyone. Not when its a price like this anyway.

Bare in minds this isnt just official sites or habbo sites, if you have a site with a radio... you're in the same place right now.

LMAO you dumb nut!

If you have any mind, you would of looked up the licensing laws on which over last year and now this are being heavily enforced.

It is not a scam, ALL websites broadcasting signed artists/bands will have to pay royalty/broadcasting fees.

This is simply because without the permission from the record labels who hold the artist/band's rights, it is against the law to broadcast their music.

[Kipp]

LOOL that ain't a scamm.

[Anvrew]

Why didn't they get contacted before now?
Hmm...
