[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a naive question for anyone who's in the know. I don't let my 9 year old use the chat function (turned off) and don't allow him to accept friend requests from anyone he's not friends with in real life. Will following those rules help him to avoid something like this happening?

Sorry op, my son would be extremely upset too. [/quote]

no, it won't help. it looks like the child accepted unfair trade by mistake because it looks like they ended with the other item.

or perhaps there was a bug in the software... it seems intentional but I don't see how a scammer would be able to take all the items because a player was just looking at theirs.

one of my kids once traded a neon cow or something for some worthless animal by mistake. i still remember that scream when she realized what happened. [/quote]

My son is pretty experienced at Roblox - he says he did not hit any keystrokes.  I can only guess this was some kind of scam software. [/quote]
