I feel like a way to 100% help stop this issue, by only allowing accounts older than 1 year have the ability to message people, therefore scammers will have to wait a pretty long time, and by the time they start doing it, roblox will ban their fake accounts and they’ll have to wait a whole year, and maybe they’ll then realize that doing what they’re doing is a big waste of time, now if they make a new account every day, then yea it may be a problem but it’s just a single account that roblox can ban with a push of a button, so I think having the ability to message should be allowed to accounts over a year old, so scams will be a lot less frequent and common
they can use bots that were made years ago and also they hack other people's account to message and 1 year is alot just to message someone maybe like 3 months is good cuz people message their friends
I think this would get in the way of normal players and not scammers or exploiters sure it could slow them down but what abouts the newer players or people who have played for awhile but not a year or so?
Smart man This is true, you NEVER get a message, you just get this screen when you log in that says “banned for 3 days” or “warning” and the reason why. Usually discriminative decals, or bypassing chat messages.
Let me explain how she got the limited: A common method used by these scammers is transferring expensive limiteds to alts. They do this, equip it on the alt the trade it back. As long as the alt had it equipped while they traded it, they will keep the item in their avatar
There is also the method where they message you about cashing out your limiteds. I usually get messages from scammers (from stolen accounts) every week with a new video and a new website, so maybe Roblox has to start doing something but what doesn't gain/reduce profit doesn't need to be solved at least from an economical perspective. However, most Roblox users that are insecure probably don't have much value which makes them less likely to be a victim to such scams but still a great video!
Honestly i never trust people like these scammers. I usually just ignore them or i report them. Thank you for the information and i will now be alot more careful and serious about it.
bro i pressed a link to go to someones profile and it said join but i said i was not logged in so i logged in and they got my pass somehow soo i lost my account and my items :(((
@@BLUE-ju7gj That happened to me once but I immediately changed my password. It's a popular scam so whenever someone sends you a link, beware, and if it's to their roblox profile is definitely a scam. I hope you could get your account somehow.
Scammers scammers scammers, WHEN WILL THEY STOP THIS. Last year everyone in the game I was in they was like go to this link to get ur acc hacked, ugh it’s so annoying.
Even though i know these scams i really like how he informs everyone about this trying to prevent less hacks. I had one time when i just got randomly dmed in discord and had the same message and the fake youtube tutorial. BE careful everyone and thank you sharkblox for making this video
this guy literally protects us from any hackers,exploiters,game that bans you and he always sends news about roblox this is why i like this guy so much
What I mean bots should continuously spam the same message n every comment section and some are horrible some even comment on mine but they deleted there comment lol
Ive been suspicious about people, they send a friend request to you and they say accept it, no matter how rich you are. Please don't accept suspicious people They would act like a friend, and then send you links you probably don't know about, probably when you both reach discord
4:28 This happened to me once, I didn’t accept it of course. I very much love your videos shark! They entertain me and let me learn about games and what to do, your absolutely a life saver when I’m confused about a certain thing in the game. I also love your avatar item hack videos they help me out a lot!
Thank goodness you showed about the 3D model scam. Someone in discord a few months ago dmed me about this stuff and I didn't know what to do so I just blocked them so now I realise I almost fell for it.
Im really glad you posted this sharblox because my account got hacked by someone I didn't even know at the time but when you posted it makes me now avoid it
i love your vids and i always watch your videos with my sister so she knows what is happening in the roblox community i love how you put your time of your day to do this.
Shark, you should make a video telling people that there is a browser extension that brings back UA-cam dislikes, so they can actually view them on videos and see if they look genuine or not.
Shark Blox releases new content on events and limited free items etc but also in his spare time releases content about this so no one gets hacked or scammed tysm
theres also a scam like this for steam accounts people dm you saying they "falsely reported" your steam account and need you to verify ur ownership the key thing to knowing these scams is discord. roblox or steam would never ask you to talk on third party softwares such as discord. hopefully this helped
The funny thing is when the first message of the request for model thing came to me, I didn't need a tutorial so I made a model of my avatar and then I was confused on where to send it. Only then I realized it's a bot
SharkBlox, Thank you a lot for keeping me updated, a LOT. I like watching your videos, they are like the news to me. Another thanks, I like your channel.
Thank you my 1st acc got scammed when i was bad at roblox so, yeah very thank you you are the best person that i have ever seen in the world you help people. You deserve 999999999999B+ subscribes. Keep on Sharkblox
How to troll a scammer: 1. You saw a scammer 2.The scammer sayed blah blah blah 3. you respond what? 4. Just say your funny its not late for the adoption 5. *the scammer raged*
Huge tip: if any of these messages say “contact using discord” simply just ignore it as Roblox HATES discord. Roblox only uses them for a game’s community server and that’s it. You can’t put your discord on your profile.
Thank you for this. I had a really good avatar on roblox, and people kept DM'ing me saying "your avatar is good, can I make a GFX?" Then when I saw the name of the video, I could see something was wrong. All I'm saying is don't trust people giving away free GFX's
I really appreciate that u told us this, because recently I got one type of these messeges, and I actually lost my account but its okay . you earned all my respect!!!
Oh God, m glad. Cuz someone added me on da hood to draw me, but he needed a 3d model he sent me a video exactly like this! im glad i didnt do that cuz i said "it was too long sorry bye."
I have realized that there are false profiles or with some traps to the visitors I have met them over the years that I have been in roblox thanks for this valuable information
If i had not watched these videos today i would have been hacked. i have had 3 accounts prior to the one i currently have (made in 2018) and all them 3 accounts were hacked because of this. its great how you help the community to solve these problems
The sad thing is that i got scammed by this around 4 days before I watched this. And the account actually had good stuff too :( I sent it to roblox support or whatever it is called and I hope I get the account back
Yes! I've met numerous of these links.. Here is a story of mine I had experience about these fake profiles.. Most of them brought me to a Rich Player I was pretty much Convinced... After Another guy contacted me and send me a link to his Roblox Profile I was so confused on why he has the exact same Description and Items as the other dude I tried logging in several times but it wont work... After that I searched there username on the REAL Roblox and There username wasn't there..
about the avatar thingy around 5:07 theres literally a plugin on roblox studio where you can search for player avatars theres no need to go to the website to put in ur info
I was trading with someone on pet simulator x discord, she said she was giving out free huge cats since she’s “quitting” and what immediately was strange is she just added a link to her Roblox “account” I didn’t want to click the link so I searched her username up (it said it in blue text” and nothing popped up, I told her: “I don’t want to use link I want to use something else” then I got a message saying “K bye” then I got blocked, it was definitely a scam that I didn’t fall for
yo im glad u made this bc i seen alot bc once my sister was about to buy robux and she saw this profile and i noticed the background looks werid and then i told her let me see somthing so i used a alt and look at the account and everything was FAKE just fake im glad i noticed thx sharkblox : )
What’s with all of the SharkBlox Stan bots in the comment sections of his videos? LIKE come on guys he’s a person too and doesn’t need to be treated like a new born dog, stop with the “I love how…”, “this never gets old…”, “anyone else appreciate how SharkBlox”, and “I am fulfilled when SharkBlox uploads…” literally NO ONE likes it!
along time ago, i fell for a scam like this except it was a guy in a game offering only 200 robux. i did this about a year ago, and got things sorted out. could he still log into my account?
Speaking of dislikes being removed, there's an extension for your browser bring back the dislike count, Chrome and Edge has the extension, for Firefox and Opera, we don't know if there is.
I got the "hey we want ur avatar in thumbnail" all the time but I never knew it was a scam because I never checked out the link. I just thought it was some really annoying developers thinking my avatar would fit their game thumbnail
