    Default HabboKingdom Security "Breach/Leak"

    Hi all,

    Not sure if anyone here at Habbox uses HabboKingdom but it looks like they had a security breach and their databases were stolen/accessed.

    First Announcement:

    Welcome back, over the last few hours we have been investigating recent events. Between the hours of 03:00 AM - 03:30 AM somebody accessed one of our admins accounts. We have a list of logs to prove how it was done, however we have not yet got to the bottom of who did it.

    It's my duty to protect our users but some of our admins seem stupid enough to have silly passwords on their accounts and not to take any notice of the things i say to keep them safe. During this time @Bri's Habbo account got accessed and a fake HabboKingdom event was created and a link was advertised. We ask that ANYONE who visited that site is to contact me urgently as it is a virus. We have gone and reset all our Admin passwords and accounts. Currently we cannot confirm is our database was downloaded as somebody did SHELL our site and prune to files / database tables. Because the database was accessed we URGE THAT ALL USERS reset their account passwords. If your password linked to any other accounts such as Habbo, Facebook and emails we HIGHLY recommend you reset ALL your passwords and change your forum password to something not connected to them accounts. We are still reviewing the situation and we are putting some other security measures in place to avoid this happening again. Technically just blame @Jordan for giving himself full admin. As a official Habbo fansite we must protect our users and we are very sorry that this has happened. This is a user error by one of our admins what happen anywhere. I'll be making sure this never happens again.

    Second Announcement:

    Important Notice


    The Database was accessed through this security breech and passwords WAS leaked. I URGE YOU RIGHT NOW that you reset ALL your passwords if you used a personal password on the forum. You MUST reset your passwords if you used the same password for anything else for example, Habbo, Facebook and most importantly YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS.

    Just thought I'll post this in case anyone here uses their fansite.

    This is the main reason why I try not to visit many fansites other than habbox. It's the only one I trust enough to be secure . Is habbokingdom official?

    Doesn't seem like a very professional fansite when instead whoever wrote the quote thing blames a list of people before apologising and taking blame themselves.

    Also to read the threads linked you need to sign up for their forum. Hell to the no lol.

    I was going to say, and to name them after referring to them as 'stupid'. Such professionalism.
