Scam Email

[DPS]

Ok, for reasons ive taken out the link they gave me.


Dear Habbo,

We regret to inform you that unauthorized access has taken place on your Habbo account.

As a result we will need you to verify that you are the rightful owner by logging in on the next link.

*LINK*

If you fail to do so we have no other option then to put a Safety Ban on your Habbo account.

We are very sorry for this message.


See you in Habbo Hotel!

Wow not even an effort to spell 0rca's name properly...

[Jonster]

Plus the wording to me seems it came from a 13 year old. As per usual though, when it isn't from official Habbo employees the wording and grammar of one is typically poor, making it clearly obvious as to whether it is real or not. Although, this can be clearly seen via the email address.

Someone will fall for it, as it has a clever incentive. Yet, the one who does fall for it will typically have no knowledge of account safety, and will probably of best bet have little furni - a wild guess indeed.

a wild but most certainly accurate
if you fall for this then you've basiclly failed at the first hurdle

[Kipp]

Loool at them pretending to be 0rca. I got a email like that once.

[luce]

I never get emails like this because my habbo is on a completely diffrent email but if i did it wouldn't matter because you sould always type the URL in anyway, i have got got by sites like this in the past before that's why I do this now lol :eusa_wall

[Boxiel]

+ the fact that 0rca is on leave doesn't phase them at all... lol

[Immenseman]

omg people are so desperate. ok ludus ^

[visa.]

[Anvrew]

[Rozi]

Aww, I feel sorry for the people who fall for these.

[Immenseman]

[Rozi]

i don't, they're obv. stupid

yeah, but I remeber for like a week when I first joined habbo I had no clue what rights were.

[Immenseman]

[Jack.Lfc]

Yeh i got this 2 on a email not even linked to habbo, it was cleverly done the link is discised if you get me so it looks like its taking you to a habbo page.

[iChaz]

[Jord]

thats what I was thinking

[jack-bristol]

If I ever got one I would personaly create a new habbo account and then put the details in on the site. Alot of effort but if lots of people did it, it would take the site owner ages to log in and out, in and out for each account submitted.! :)

[ecstasy]

i've never got one :)

[Sunny.]

I got that email. Even though none of my acc's are registered at that email ? lol

[AgnesIO]

Same here LOL. That made my lol so much, its someone on your msn most likely.

When i got it the email address was actually [email protected] or summin.

Not really, all you would have to do is check if the user has two/three things:

1) A room or rooms
2) If the user looks like he has friends (obviously, if you have a worthy ammount of furniture you have atleast ONE friend..)
3) If the user was registered after a few weeks etc.

Considering the emailer cannot spell, I doubt they would be clever enough to do that!

Someone tried dfopiong the old 'ctrl+m' scam on me yesterday.

I played along and said my password for gullible65 and they tried it LOL

[Blinger1]

Oh god, that scam still exists!?

[AgnesIO]

Oh god, that scam still exists!?


Yep - still!

[Fivas]

Fail at the "Orca"
He can't tell a 0 for an O?
Anyway only little idiots fall for those ;p

[Mikey]

I got one on my msn email from "Lost_Witness" offering free credits. I have another mail provider registered for habbo so obviously I didn't fall for it.

[:DBeth:D]

Desperate people but it a bit obvious it a scam becasue if you verified your email you can tell but if you havent in not that obv :)
