    Exclamation Watch out- Sack scam!

    Didn't see a thread about this on the forum so I thought I'd post to make sure everyone watches our for this

    Basically this is when someone says they're buying a GB for 50c or more and they put two sacks and 10 or 11 bronze into the trade and just before they click accept, they quickly take away a sack in the hope that you won't notice and as a result, you would have sold a GB for like 30c.

    Make sure you thoroughly examine the trade before accepting

    Not exactly on the topic but when you're trading, be wide awake!
    Once I was making a shop and I had fountains. I had sold 3 fountains i think it was for a gb. I wasn't paying attention and as soon as I put my fountains in I accepted. Only to realise after the trade he didn't give me the gb for it. The fountains were worth over 20c aswell!
    Pay attention to what you're doing, don't be fooled!

    Some people may not actually know though Jan. Just because you're fully aware about the risks of trading on Habbo and how people could scam you, doesn't mean others are.

    Thanks for the heads up, Paige. xxx
