    okay we will start with the most popular:
    If anyone says " look what happens when i type my password in ******* cool isnt it"

    Dont try it habbo do not protect your password in stars if you say it infact they wont protect it in anyway if you say it the scammer is just trying to steal your accounts.

    Dont visit anysites where they are promising free credits or furni or doubling furni. IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO DO THIS NOBODY CAN. They will probly ask for your habbo username and password to do this scam yet again they are trying to steal your account. a good rule is That if it is too good to be true then it really is.

    Be aware of keyloggers they are malicious programs which log down every key you press and sends it back to the person who sent you that keyogger. It can tell the person your habbo username password and even creditcard details. The best way is not to contact anyone from inside habbo, outside it including using progarms like msn instant messenger and similar programs. If you do talk to people outside habbo well you shouldnt because it is a habbo bannable offence but if you do then make sure you dont accept any files they offer you.

    If you have any problems in habbo such as people being abusive and furni in walls among other things report it to a hobba by clicking on the blue question mark at the bottom of the screen then call for help.( you must be in a room to call for help) Give hobba's some time they are busy people and can take a while they wont tell you if they have banned the person or not so dont think they havent done anything.

    Beaware of credit card scams Recently a new scam has come in play where people will say they will buy your rares for credits ask them what method they are using because what can happen is that they will buy you credits on their credit card you will give them the rare furni and they will then contact the bank saying that they did not permit that transaction and the bank will contact habbo who will ban you for it and the credits will be removed and the money will be refunded to the scammer and they will still have your rare so you would have lost out.
    Also they use this method to ban people they dont like so if you log in to realise you have some credits you didn't buy then Dont go spend them contact habbo immediatly and tell them what has happend.

    Any questions please send me a Personal message Through this forum
