Account broken into ?

[mike475]

I havent been on Habbo in about 2 years, so im wondering if anyone could shed some light on what I've just found out.

My mate on MSN said my habbo account had been broken into and all of my furniture was missing. I went to sign on with my account but the password was incorrect. I went on with a different account, to find all of my stuff missing.

My username is Mike475 on the UK hotel, just wondering if those who play Habbo could give me some help please? I've not a clue how they got my password, as I haven't been on Habbo in years. My password is on my computer, but its in the same file as my PayPal details, Internet Banking details etc but thats all fine?

Many thanks

Your are very silly keeping files of your details.

If someone hacks your computer, you're screwed!

If you are going to store them, write them down on some paper.

i guess. but im not silly i dont download stuff or anything like that.
i've done a password reset for my habbo, and im back on, but everything is missing ?

really confused

edit: gothic mafia anyone ?

[no waiii]

you've been hacked?

[mike475]

you've been hacked?

im not sure though ?
my password was lowercase and capital letters, numbers to. it consisted of my smashing my hand on the keyboard - so totally random ?
everything else like ebay, hotmail etc is fine.

i havent been on habbo in years ?

Well, like I said. Do not store passwords in a file on your PC.

You could of had a keylogger and some people are only after Habbo passwords.

Also, what they do is they pretend to be you and say they forgot the password.

If you have msn they could be using Social Engineering to get info from you such as, DoB, other email accounts, clues to secret answers etc etc...

Yeah you may have given someone your Date of birth over msn.

Never give out any personal information over the internet!

Doubt it's Gothic mafias, it could be anyone. Someone you probably know maybe.

What is it you need details wise to get back "lost passwords" ?

You will need:
Your ISP (BT, AOL, Virgin Media etc)
Your account creation date
Any other accounts registered with the email
Any credit purchases. (The way you purchased them. Phone, Card etc)

And any other things you can think of that might help.

hmm, if habbo has issued a password reset for my account to someone not me, willl they have to reimburse me for everything ?
