https://www.roblox.com/games/622934595/FREE-ROBUX-BY-ROBLOX-LIMITED-TIME

This game currently has lots of bots in the game to boost the popularity to get more new players to join and fall for scams.

When you join the game there is a fake leaderboard that looks EXACTLY like a normal leaderboard.
It has "ROBLOX" on the leaderboard, making it seem like their in the game.
Next it shows a fake chat with "ROBLOX" talking to other fake users.
Saying things such as...


"I completed the obby"

Roblox: "It should be in your account now!"

"OMG IT WORKED!"

If you try to chat it will tell you "you need to complete the obby first!"
Once you complete the obby it brings up a gui saying "receive your 1mil robux" and it looks very legitimate which confuses new players.
Then it says "you need to verify your account" and you have to enter all your account information.
Its a disgusting trick that sadly would trick new players due to how legit it looks, and new players not having an idea what a "gui" is or a "scam on roblox" is.

I think when you start your account Roblox should have some tutorial or something.
The tutorial will explain around the site ect, but it will also explain what scamming is and how it works.
The fact ROBLOX would NEVER do something like this unless you get a message in news or its a twitch stream.


Yeah yeah, whenever you message someone it tells you to never give info, but this is happening in games now. It always happened in games but more than ever and more advanced.
If the tutorial idea is to "big" or something,
why not just when you join the game a default message is "Don't give info to anyone!".
New players need to be warned. Someone not knowing how the site works yet would not know how a scam works on the site, and roblox needs to atleast try to fix it.


If ROBLOX did do this they wouldn't change A LOT due to people STILL getting scammed because people can be pretty dumb sometimes, I think this would stop quite a bit of scamming, though.





TL;DR = roblok need 2 show new player what scam is so no scam ok yay ur lazy

dunno what it's called but i joined a game on the front page a few years ago. i was on ipad so it was harder to tell if you were actually in a game or not so when it said 'Error Occured. Please enter your details below to login again.' had the official logo, the builderman falling over too so it was pretty convincing. no leaderboard either, but then the maker of the game said in chat 'enter ur details m8!' yeah, that made me leave. i wasn't that dumb.
