Beware of “free avatar art” scams in Adopt Me/Roblox communities.
Hi everyone, I’m only posting this hoping it reaches players especially younger ones so they don’t get scammed or have their accounts hacked. We all know Adopt Me has a lot of scammers, whether it’s through YouTube channels, group links, etc.
Today I was playing in Adopt Me trading servers when someone messaged me saying they loved my avatar and wanted to make art of it. I said yes, and we added each other on Discord. After that, he sent me a tutorial video telling me to open Inspect Element, go into the Network tab, copy things, turn them into links/files, and send them back.
That was already a red flag for me because I thought he only needed a picture of my avatar. I looked into it more and realized I was right he was trying to steal data from my Roblox account. I called him out, and he deleted the tutorial video, which made it even more obvious that I was right about all of this.
Whoever is reading this, please do not accept anything like this. There are people out there with really bad intentions, and they don’t care about you or your account.
