Definition of Wire Fraud: Financial fraud involving the use of telecommunications or information technology.
"A single act of wire fraud can result in fines and up to 20 years in prison".
- Wire Fraud is also using a computer or device that can connect to the internet and "scamming" or doing a fraudulent attempt on the internet. See quote for what happens if you're caught.
Bottom Line: Don't scam, even though you most likely won't be caught on a game like ROBLOX, if it has to do with real life money, you can be thrown in jail for up to 20 years. So just don't get into the habit.

If you're wondering where I got the quote from, search "Wire fraud definition" on Google and you'll see for yourself.
Also, why drop out of law school? :P

@Jay
a Fifa Coin Selling Website was sued and the team (or part of it, I think 4 people) were sent to jail for 30 years. They broke the ToS so many times that is what happened.
(P.S. They made 19 Million Dollars off "Fifa Coins").
So I heard Opt made "800k", not sure if this is true or not, but I'm sure ROBLOX is gonna get him soon. He's got it coming.

virtual currency and real money is not the same thing though, one of the elements of wire fraud is money.

I understand that @above
I'm just saying don't get into the habit of scamming otherwise it may turn into that.
Also, in the other case that someone got scammed tonight, he was also scammed a $50 Visa card which is still wire fraud because it holds value to assets.
