False advertising is illegal in real life (assuming your country doesn't allow it.)

However, this is a game and is under no laws of the world outside it. (for the most part)

It's called marketing.
More than likely they're technically not false advertising.

"Escape the GIANT Snake!" Go into the game and its a 250 level obby, with no snake in sight. How is that not false advertisement?

You worded that badly, sorry. I thought you meant ROBLOX as a company was false advertising.

It's not illegal on roblox as you can't arrest someone for a game inside a game.
ie. You can build whatever.

In some cases it's not allowed for players to make false thumbnails. If you see a false thumbnail/title, you can report it or even PM the moderator who takes offense to those things, NobleDragon (or nobel..?) and he will sort things out by

a.) CDing the game
b.) Removing thumbnail and resetting the title

@Electric
What they should do is change the name to [Content Deleted] and remove the picture. If offenses keep coming, ban them or delete their place.

This is a serious issue. Roblox needs to do something about it. At least don't let people disable the chat. That allows the transgressors to censor anyone who wants to do this.
