    Default Stop Quick Trade Scamming Idea.

    Now, I know your all thinking if you get quick trade scammed, it was your fault for ticking to fast anyway but here is a way to PREVENT quick trade scammer. Post your comments and if you think it would or wouldn't work. Anyway...
    When you trade someone, instead of being able to just tick the little accept box, you attempt to tick it then a popup comes up saying 'Warning: If you click this box it will stay ticked for 5 seconds' then they definitely know that they want to accept the trade then. I know your probably thinking the pop up would get annoying, but it would just be like the one when your giving away your furni and I think everyone had got used to that. Anyway post your ideas, Thanks

    I'd say..Very good plan.
    Scammers should be Stopped. They are Too low for the Society on Habbo.
    All I could think of is Making EVERYONE aware that there are Scammers, and You Shouldn't trade Them.
    Expose yourself to your deepest fear; after that, fear has no power, and the fear of freedom shrinks and vanishes. You are free.

    If someone trades you in a trade room and:
    1) puts in a throne for your HC and ticks but quickly cancels it
    2) retrades and puts in a rug
    Its very common and is an easy way of getting scammed

    Always wait for 5 seconds or longer to check the trade and what they have offered. Also make sure you keep your cursor over the cancel button to avoid accidental clicking.
