1. When you go to a Retro Hotel site you risk having your computer infected with keyloggers, Trojans or other nasty code that you can't see.
What are RETRO hotels?
Retro hotels are hotels created by other people that mimic the original Habbo Hotel.
The promise free credits, free furni and even staff employment.
This is against the Habbo way as it is a copyright infringement and it could also be quite dangerous in regards to your computer safety and your Habbo account safety.

4. Retro Hotels have no professionally trained staff for you to turn to if you experience bullying, harassment or inappropriate sexual behaviour on the Retro; in fact as many Retros sell moderator status to anyone willing to pay so it may even be a Retro moderator who is the one abusing you.
If you can think of any other that can go under risky business when dealing with Retros stick it on the Risky Business thread.

RISKY RETROS
When you visit a Retro you may think that the worst thing about the place is that it's empty and all your friends are on the real Hotel. However there are other nasty things which can put you at risk if you use Retro hotels.
Hope you can list more than 1!

3. Retro Hotels are NOT owned and run by proper companies who have to abide by Data Protection laws as Sulake does and keep your emails safe. That means your email can be harvested and sold to companies whose business is to spam you with highly inappropriate emails.
