pls

DON'T release this, it will only mean that you will be able to scam users in-game.

What to add instead:

Game:GetService("BrowserService"):OpenWindow("http://www.roblox.com/item?ID=blargh")

or something. basically in-game GUI hyperlinks. they ask you "would you like to open this window", still. to prevent spamming. but they're much more secure than in-game purchases.

I will literally NOT go in-game if this is released, because I feel insecure with the knowledge that a misclick could have me broke

Various ways.

For example, it can pretend to use in-game currency.

Or it could show the GUI when you're about to click on another button in the "Yes, I want to buy" button area.

It could simply be one of those "invisibility shirt" scams.

Etc....

Ingame transactions is a good idea IMO.

@SN0X, I think you'll get a message warning you like:

"Are you sure you want to buy 'NOT A SCAM I PROMISE' for 99999999999999999 Robux?"

This is a good idea. Position the GUI in a random place away from the mouse.

> Position the GUI in a random place away from the mouse.

Or, instead of having it look messy, have it swap the yes and no buttons. E.g., if your mouse is on the right side of the screen, the yes button will be on the left (opposite) side.

Just MAKE SURE to have a double confirmation. If it's just a 1-click buy, it will be easy to trick people into clicking.

At least we cant put guis over it like parenting to coreguis.
Was fun teleporting people to my games at script builders by swapping the yes and no buttons on teleport requests.

There are these things called "double confirmation" that would prevent click-jacking attacks.

And the ability to overlay normal GUIs over core GUIs has been removed, so click jacking shouldn't be an issue anyway.

Also, if you are really concerned about this, put all your money in the TC before you visit games. Then you won't have any problems.

Look at the code in the CoreScript, CoreScript/PurchasePromptScript
(It will usually error in edit mode).


That will help you sort out the details about how it's going to work. Posted it as a model too >_>



- As, hey @99 above ^!
