'habbo of the month' scam/hack.

[Jurv]

hello!

it has come to my attention that a few people, including myself, have been receiving habbo minimails about being habbo of the month or something along those lines. the way i came about this 'scam/hack' was actually via someone who i helped in the help desk not long ago. she was explaining to me that there was some sort of offical habbo competition involving a 'habbo of the month', which she said i was voted for. i didn't think anything of it at first, as she seemed quite friendly beforehand so i believed her and asked her to give me the information on the competition. she then sent me this minimail and told me that all of the information was on that page.

here's the minimail which i recieved from her:

after receiving the minimail i then clicked onto the link (which i advise you not to do) and after i clicked onto it, you could almost tell that it wasn't safe. it looked dodgy and you needed to click onto another link/button to go to the voting page. but yeah, i didn't think much of it at the time and just closed it off. however, i just found out a few minutes ago that a few other people had been sent the links saying that it was a 'scam site'

so yeah, i just thought i would let you all know about it!
