    Default A new email scam. (Screenie)

    Right, I was checking my emails this morning. I found one from 'The Habbo Hotel Team Of Misconduct'

    So I opened it quickly, it scared me at first. And I didn't read it all, but it said 'If you don't fill this form and send it back in 24 hours, your habbo willl be perminantly banned' or something. So I clicked reply. Willing to send them my pass, then looked at the top and saw the email ended with *hawtmail . com*

    So I'm like. Hold on a minute. This is a scam...

    So I began to look for spelling mistakes, at one point it said Habbo Hotel US instead of UK..

    It also had various punctuation missed out and stuff.

    I've put the spelling mistakes and stuff in red circles on the screenie.

    EDIT - Nevermind about the screenie. (It's too big)
    I'll just paste the email. -
