    Default Anyone can Get "Scammed"

    Im sure most of us are aware of most of the scams presented to us and if you arent I suggest u read some posts in this forum, but I will write this out even though it may have been said many times before.

    If someone offers you to "Buy" an account name, dont do it. They ask you for rares for a cool name such as eg : "Death". Now, you want to be cool and have this name and you pay the guy 2 hcs for it. Know this, when u "buy" an account from someone the original owner is always able to regain access to the account because habbo can do an account recovery and send the newly changed password to the original email address used that was used to sign up to that account. Even if you change the email address of the account u purchased the seller is still able to reobtain the new password.

    People often do this with the hopes of having the user who bought this account move all of their furni over to the new account and then the seller gets the password retrieved to them and takes the account back. In many other cases the person who bought the account changes the password on that account and it ends up being the same as their pass on the account they are using. This happens on a daily basis and people lose everything they have. Moral of this thread, is DO NOT BUY ACCOUNTS FROM ANYONE, regardless of how cool the name is or how many days of hc it has.
