Alright, most of us have dealt with "Spammers", and "Scammers" over the years playing ROBLOX. In fact, ROBLOX probably has the highest number of spam/scams then in any other game. You see them mostly in comments of places, catalog, and even in groups. It's been around since the beginning of ROBLOX, and it has gotten so vast now, that it has become a serious problem. Everyday, people fall for these frauds, and blame ROBLOX for not doing anything about it.

For example:
HOW TO GET 10000000000 ROBUX OR TIX
1.COPY AND PASTE THIS ON 5 GROUPS
2.PRESS F5 ON YOUR PROFILE
3.LOOK IN YOUR INBOX
4.CLICK ON THE MESSAGE THAT SAYS "CONGRATS"

-This is causing the newer generation of players to think it is real. They will copy it, paste it on 5 groups, and they will keep a chain of it going on and on. This scams the person, since it is 100% fake, and it makes not just the original person who first saw it, but now more people are exposed to it. These have consumed most of the comments in places, and the catalog now. It has grown out of control, and we need to stop it. Teaching people to do this act will not give them any potential skill in life, or in games. It has become a irritation to the people who know it's fake; while it gives confusion to others.

In someway this needs to be stopped. Either sending "Warnings" at first, to everyone who is caught doing the act; then "Temporary Bans" to others who continue. There could also be a more advanced filter, which could prevent most of these from every being posted.

Not only can this be an improvement to the site, but it can be a "Fun" eventful period. The ROBLOX Administrators send notifications out to all accounts, explaining in detail about the event. Once people are notified, we started finding anyone who posted these comments. It's easy on our end as well. All you would have to do is, click the report button under the comment, and that person will be sent a "Warning".

Hopefully after some time, these comments will start to fade out, and we will start keeping a more Spam and Scam free place!

Please leave your feedback, and any suggestions to this topic! It's not impossible to do this. It may be a difficult task, but we CAN do this together.

Though, to argue.
" ROBLOX probably has the highest number of spam/scams then in any other game."
You've never played TF2, or Diablo III, have you? e.e'
