    Default Hack or glitch?

    Hello. Okay, right, I'll start from the beginning. A couple of days ago (maybe 6 days ago) I was on the client when it told me I was signed out by another browser machine or something like that. I thought nothing of it, because it sometimes happened to me. But when I tried logging in after a couple of minutes later it told me my password was wrong. I tried ALL my passwords which I've saved and they're 100% accurate. None of them worked. I was finally able to log in after changing my email and password. When I logged in, although none of my furniture were stolen, I noticed that a couple of my accounts were logged in from the last couple of hours. I never logged into them.
    4 days ago, I was hacked. Again. After changing my email and password from the previous hacking, I still got hacked? Same thing happened from the above. No furniture stolen, just my accounts being logged into.
    And yesterday, hacked. Again? I even generated my password to something extra long with 20 numbers and letters. I'm gobsmacked at this considering that they don't even take my furniture on my different accounts, they just get logged into.

    Is this happening to anybody? Some kind of glitch or am I actually getting "hacked", even though they don't take anything?

    Key logger probably. Either that or a dodgy glitch but it sounds more like a keylogger to me.

    Strange, if it is a hack, surely they'd take your stuff?
    I've left. I'm back.

    I would say its a key logger aswell and if it is, maybe that keylogger is just curious to what Habbo is and may be looking for more such as bank details etc.

    Scan your computer for viruses and check anything you've downloaded recently, any dodgy links you clicked on etc. As Liam said, it's probably a keylogger looking for stuff more important like bank/card details.

    Sounds more like a keylogger, definitely worth running a scan on your PC!

    I run a scan on my laptop every week, there were 2 threats last week which I got rid of by deleting. I just did one yesterday, it found none.

    Keyloggers can be disguised with other programs. Some may not get picked up by scans.

    What's your Habbo name? I may be able to shed some more light on this for you.
