Old Habbos getting hacked?

[Okeanos]

Has anybody noticed that various old habbo accounts have been hacked in the last year? I know Lincognito (and her old staff account Akela!), Mizki and icebox12 have been hacked. Even though they don't use habbo anymore it is a shame because I liked to visit old style rooms... and now they're gone!

was icebox recent? I remember hearing about it last yr lol

It's probably to do with the help tool database leak a few years back, support staff probs aren't aware of it and are effectively giving accounts away.

I can remember both Mizki and icebox12 being hacked like 2011-12

yeh but the point is, they hadn't logged on for years and years - so how are they getting hacked? Lin was quite recent. not too long ago i heard about someone trying to hack Weird (some guy had his details)... luckily it was safety banned in time but how are these old habbos accounts being compromised?

but Lin for sure had left habbo years before that, and as she was staff she presumably wouldn't have used the help tool anyway. how was she hacked?

Scythe was hacked and stolen and the user pretends to be a former hobba when actually he's probably 16 it's embarassing

No doubt there are serious loopholes in Habbo's security.. then again if that was the case I'm sure Jake would have been hacked by now. Junius got hacked didn't he?

This.

A lot of accounts were compromised during the leak, and proper measures weren't taken at the time. Even though security has been increased since then, a lot of old skoolers haven't been around to update their details :/
