RIP Glenn Rhee 2k16
I added someone from the island not too long ago who keeps constantly asking me to open my gate, or to give him bells. Needless to say, I don't do either. Don't trust the guy one bit. Just don't trust anyone my friend.
I can give you some hybrids if you'd like I'm sorry this happened to you..
I never let people wander around in my town because I'm ultra paranoid
Also, if you know it was a member on here, I believe you can privately report them to the mods? Not 100% sure on that though.
Yeah, this sort of thing hits my berserk button almost instantly.
Just the other day I was visiting someone's town and some imbecile came in after me asking every couple of seconds if she could buy some of the items displayed in the host's house (this is while the host was giving me and another person a tour of her house mind you). She would never say anything that wasn't related to attempting to buy/take an item.
To make things even more irritating, she eventually discarded any sort of subtlety and just rushed out of the house to see if she could pick some things off the ground without anyone noticing. Instead of being able to relax and enjoy this town, everyone there was more or less forced to babysit this miscreant so she couldn't steal anything. The host eventually just disconnected when she started to attempt to force the host to save under the pretense of performing a glitch.
So yeah, these sorts of people ruin things for everyone, not just the owner of a specific town.
People really are a pain to deal with sometimes.
And if you're using the new 3DS XL that lacks said switch, you can either hit the power button or disconnect the Wi-Fi via home menu (Top left where the themes are).
Adding because when I got this thing, I couldn't find a way to DC in case something like this happened. The power button is less convenient, but a good failsafe if you're running on the new hardware.
I'm sorry this happened to you as well.
Just be a little more cautious and look for people that have good wifi ratings before adding them.
and if it's a new user, Google their 3ds code, and see if they show up on a blacklist somewhere.
Also, you may want to consider picking up a second copy of new leaf one day if you see it on sale somewhere. It will change your outlook on everything in the game.
If you have a town to TT in without risk, you can crank out more hybrids than you'll ever need.
You can even make extras in case of thieves, or if anyone tramples on them.
there will still be some jerks that will screw you, but at least you wont take much of a hit since you can easily make more... but their wifi rating sure will take a hit if they do mess with you.
just something to consder. There's a ton of uses for a second town cartridge, and if you got a friends 3ds to borrow, even more uses.
Hit me up if you ever need any replacement hybrids tho, ill be happy to help.
With a second TTing town, the value of hybrids goes way down, but sharing the love is just that much easier!
I don't open my gates often for this reason. It feels so violating. Sorry it happened to you, thieves ruin it for everyone but themselves. No respect for them.
Yeah, also annoying when you giveaway hybrids then someone try's to come back and your like... No... Stop trying to steal more you greedy pig. :/
another bit of advice. As soon as I'm finished with a trade from people on here, I delete their friend code from my 3ds. I only keep personal friends permanently on my system. If I'm just doing a trade with someone on here, I have no reason to keep a stranger on this. it could be safer to do things that way as well
I've gotten stolen from three times. Two were Club Tortimer members I was stupid enough to add, and another was a friend of a friend. I know how it feels, just tell everyone to stay close by you and if they start roaming or running around, flip the switch. If you don't have the switch, power off or switch off the router. Not as convenient as the switch, but it's your only choice.

Awh i'm so sorry to hear that's very unfortunate and it's sad to say there are alot of people who can't be trusted thats why i make sure always that theres only one person at my town at a time and if more than 1 then i keep an on them because you never know honestly even if wifi ratings are good.
Wow some people really lack manners. I think people are willing to give if you asked. I hope I can help you but I just started my town wishing you the best
I'm so sorry! I've never been scammed before but how awful!
I am always worried about this happening to me.Half the time I have stuff laying on the ground that are important to me. I always delete FC's after I have done a trade, just seems safer to not have random ones around. Its what works for me. Its sad that we have to be so careful, but we all work hard on our towns.
I have some hybrids if you still need any....
Actually this is kind of the reason why i don't bother doing hybrids, well in your case it's best to check their wifi ratings before u invite them plus i suggest that you don't invite more that one person at a time ^^
I am so sorry this happened to you! I have had someone from the forums stop by my town while I was waiting for someone to come pick up a villager. Needless to say, she stole a blue pansy and a few blue roses. I caught her stealing a few purple roses and that's when I flipped the switch. I know you said you don't want any hybrids, but have a bunch of orange roses that can replace the ones stolen If you need anything let me know!
Oh no! That's terrible.
It happened to me when I first started my town and I had gotten a few hybrids (so I could breed them again to get more) and this girl had put a pretty bad design in my Able Sisters and kept insisting I saved so I wouldn't lose it. I was doing something so I said 'later'.
I walked into my patch of flowers and they were all gone. I switched off my 2DS and deleted the one who I think took them.
Thank goodness I switched my DS off because it would've really held up my breeding progress.
Any way, please people, stop stealing. It's really unpleasant to see that days of work is taken. Not to mention you'll get a bad WiFi rating.
I'm so sorry this happened to you...I'm usually VERY picky about who I let into my town(s), but then I'm kind of paranoid. Thankfully I haven't had anyone steal from me...at least that I can remember.
And I was able to unlock the train station upgrades just from trading between my boyfriend or using my two DSes.
I would make use of the best friend feature in the game...at least then only people you add to your bestie list can come into your town.
Wow, people can be pricks. This is why I usually stick to here when trading.
This happened at my friends town. Her and I where just playing around, and 2 people came. 1 person was a close friend to the host, and she told me he was good and wouldn't steal anything. The other person kept running away and acting suspicious. I followed her, but she didn't seem to be stealing anything while I was around. Later on, she told us she would do a glitch, so the host had to save. Meanwhile, the host & I were best friend chatting, and talking about how suspicious she was being. The host obviously didn't save, because she had known what was going on as well. Anyways, after we all played, the host told me a few of her flowers had gone missing, because she accidentally saved before hand.
People just need to STOP! especially since there are younger kids on here, and if their flowers or items got stolen, they would get upset.
