    Default New Scam?

    Ok, so your in a room and a guy/girl starts chatting to you, becomes your 'mate' and then blurts out with
    " i think i should leave habbo, what should i do with my thrones?"
    so you say
    " can i have them?"
    And he says
    "Sure"
    So, he then decides he wants to keep in touch, and asks for your MSN so he adds you and talks to you for a bit and you ask for his furni, he then says
    " Oh yeh sure , i'll send you the password, is this the email you use for habbo?"
    You say
    " Yeh"
    So he goes on habbo homepage and clicks on forgotten password, he enters your habbo name and your email, you receive a email with a code ( your new password) And he says,
    "there i sent it to you"
    So you try the password with his name and it doesnt work, so you tell him.
    He then says
    "Hmm, well let me try it whats the code?"

    So you tell him, he now has your password and he takes your stuff, new or old?

    Ive had someone get to the first stage but no further after saying 'my lyk email addy dont work, can i ave urs?' To avoid this i just ignore/remove anyone who says they want to leave or are thinking of it
    Alternatively just dont give out your personal details at all, ever
