    When I was a young little idiot, I fell for a much simpler version of this on Roblox. No discord involved, I just typed my password in a game. The scam dude logged into my account and bought a tee shirt thing with my last 40 Robux. I got my account back and reported the tee shirt as fraudulently purchased to Roblox, they sent me some generic "we have received your report but can't update you on the status of your report and can not remove the shirt or refund your Robux". 3 days later my account was banned for a week because the tee shirt said "shit".
    Definitely taught me not to be a silly little idiot, that's for sure...

    It's crazy how advanced these scams got.
    In 2012, a guy told me to buy this shirt for admin in his "popular" game. I believe the game had 800k visits at the time, so he said he is selling admin for his super active game in 250 robux.
    I bought it, obviously got scammed. He's banned and all but that was just 250 robux. it's crazy that scammers just want to steal your account now.

      Even though I'm an active player of roadblocks, I agree very much
      My friend NJ and I once gaslighted a server that someone named oblivio_pro and his friend (forgot his name) were hackers
      We used the cheapest tactic too
      We were making them say they were hackers in the chat by typing things like this "###########################################[oblivio_pro]: hey guys I'm a hacker and I'll beat your family"
      No one bat an eye at the white chat tag and they all fell for our BS
      Another friend joined the group gaslighting session and in the end we were sad we didn't record it

    for the scammer saying “we don’t want to get copyrighted for using your outfit.” Its not possible, you cant copyright claim somebody for using a roblox avatar, its impossible. its something different if it has your face, name, or any other private details. for a copyright claim, you need to file copyright on something legally. like in court, they will find it silly and not let you copyright an outfit on a video game. you can sue if they use a shirt with any of your personal unique information. like, face, email, ssn, credit card info, address, etc. if its your name like “John” you cant do it because names are reused. but if its a full name, you might be able to. just depends on what the court rules fair use, and not fair use

    This whole scam can just be avoided if you use 2% of your brain and realize Roblox owns the rights to all avatar items, accessories, pretty much anything under their umbrella, which means you cannot by extension DMCA them over "your" avatar you do not actively own the rights too, sure you can use it and Roblox allows you to use said customization of course, but at the end of the day, you do not own those items, the people who made them via UGC? They made it sure, but once again, Roblox owns the full legal rights to said assets, so the scam template outright stating they can get "DMCA copyrighted" from you specifically is genuinely hilarious to me

    this is insane. i took down a similar scam about a month ago. it was like a downgraded version of this. they got their victims into their server with a message offering Robux, limiteds, or real money to use the victims avatar as an npc in their game. in their discord server, the bots just sent the same messages on loop. it had the same rolinked thing, but instead of stealing your account, it attempted to buy a specific gamepass (that got deleted pretty quickly), created an API key, then advertised their scam. unexpectedly, the API key wasnt to steal your games or anything. they were using it to loop ban their victims' accounts, presumably by uploading innapropriate assets. very weird.

    they (your potential hackers) say something along the lines of “i’m making a game and i want to add your avatar..” kinda similar to this
    if you follow through and talk some more to them, they’ll ask you to add them on Disc
    once you do they ask for your roblox gfx file, now for those who don’t know it’s basically a file that has information to everything on your account.

    I did get scammed by this a few days ago.. though, I noticed that someone was in my account because of the age changing.. (2-step verification and emails from roblox) I immediately logged everyone else out of my account and I immediately went to change my password and changed the "parent's email" to my own email. I am so glad and relieved that I still have my account with me. Thanks for covering this, I think the only reason I fell for it is because I lack braincells 😭

    Finally someone talking about this, i got scammed by them like 1 month ago, they took all of my robux and deactive my account, now the support of roblox doesn't want to help me because they say that i never made a purchase or even that they doesn't have any information about gmail on my old account, that is so frustrating

      Hey, I know it sucks, but a lot of people who get scammed never talk about it due to being embarrassed about it. Please use this as an opportunity to learn to not fall for things like this again.

    The fact that people fall for this is scary because
    They don’t verify the game
    They don’t even address what the outfit looked like and

    I would just like to add, he is the #1 top scammer in Roblox history. He has been scamming Roblox players for 7 years and this is WAY more than his 3rd scam. No matter what we do, he will just make a new scam. It's honestly sad.
