    Default Hacked

    Yeah, I was hacked last Saturday through a method called 'reverting'. I dont know what this, so if anyone could just say what it is I would much appreciate it

    They did it through MSN and then got onto Habbo that way. At first they just posted it on a hack forum as 'Good Own' and that they did it just for the fun of it, however, a few days later they stole all 5T worth of furni I had.

    Quite annoying really, all the furni that you have worked up ages for, just gone because someone did it for 'fun'.

    Reverting is where they provide Hotmail details about yourself such as IP address, name etc in order to get a reset email for your password. Sorry to read that, don't use Hotmail

    It's sad to see you're hacked . What sort of email are you using for forums and Habbo etc? Like Hotmail, Yahoo etc - as that is why you have been hacked. It's probably Hotmail. Once again, sorry to hear you were hacked .

    and the moral of the story is don't tell habbos the email address linking to your habbo account.

    with the revert link i have (ive never used) all you need is email and secret question. its best to use a different email for habbo than anything you will give out like msn because that way you dont have to tell anyone your habbo email and your safe

    Yeah i agree, Tom, your name was on ********** a few weeks ago but i think they some dude accessed your account for fun or w/e.

    Hotmail is a good service you just got to be curious on who you give your personal details. You may have some one on hotmail contacts ready to pounce.

    That's why rich habbos don't use their main Msn or w/e and link it with Habbo, just use for example [email protected] and don't tell anyone! Also delete any habbo emails COMPLETELY so if you ever do get hacked again they won't be able to trace it to the new it to the new email you stored.

    I hope you come back! Your one of best Games room hosts out there!

    the "revert link" you have can be accessed by anybody in like 5 seconds and for proper reverting you don't need secret question but need ip and dob
