    Default Habbo Help Desk Hacked [READ]

    Okay so, I'm not sure if people noticed, but to help word get around I'm going to post about it!

    The Habbo Help Desk was recently Hacked. What the hacker could see/obtain :
    - Habbo Name
    - Habbo E-Mail Linked to Account

    Now your not in direct danger. But things can still turn for the worse. Lately for many online games, fake e-mails have been sent at a massive rate. Meaning a hacker will send 1,000 FAKE e-mails contacting a user about a Infraction or blemish on the users account.

    Some users, seeing this as "Oh, what? I think Sulake has an error there." Will click the link the Hacker provides, sending them to a Phisher, and then getting their account stolen.

    This happens on a large scale. If you've EVER used the Habbo Helpdesk. Be Prepared. Always check to URL before entering any data. I thought I'd throw this out there so people could know. That any e-mails about infractions, or issues regarding your accounts, could be fake!

    Hacker took a picture of e-mails and Habbo names :


    I blurred names and emails out primarily to keep those users safe. There are more pictures, of the hacker in the helpdesk. As you can see he got away with thousands of users emails. So be on high alert!

    And how did you obtain such a screenie? Absolute rubbish.

    ... There is no such thing as a Helpdesk, it is a Help tool. You obviously don't know what you're going on about.

    My bad for being wrong. Help tool is what I meant when I was going on and on about a helpdesk. I was typing this in a rush, so to say.

    As far as me getting the screenshot, I know the person who did it. I don't actually know them know them, I'm on a forum with said person.

    I'd post it unblurred, but I don't think it'd be a great idea, posting other users information. Just not safe, plus that'd be downright wrong to do.

    If you'd like I'll post what screenshots the guy has of the Habbo.nl Help tool.

    I'm just posting this so other can know that it was hacked, and that possible scams may happen.

    Others do know it was hacked from previous threads made about this. Though I don't think it's wise showing information and proof.

    I didn't see anything (however I did do a quick glance, probably would've helped if I searched), so I decided to post this. I'm not going to provide more proof of this. I don't think more is needed. If staff member wants to see it, to prove it legitimacy then so be it. But to normal eyes, the information isn't needed. This wasn't mean to be a "oh great a noob is warning us," or a "this is a load of rubbish." I just wanted to help spread the word, cause not all of the habbos out there use the Help tool, or may have, and then never visited it again. So having your E-mail stolen poses a threat.
