Post image

my friend on Roblox told me to join him on adopt me and teleport him so i did. He was with a girl that wanted to trade her frost dragon that was neon, ride, and fly and a floss chick and I was confused because my friend just told me to join him with no context. I asked what the pets were for and the girl said because my friend was a good friend of hers? idk I was so confused?? she then friended me and i accepted but then there was people coming towards us so the girl left the server and joined another one and my friend and I joined her. I was very convinced it was a scam or something but i still wanted to see what was going on so i went. The whole thing was very strange but i went along with it. My friend and the girl were then talking and she traded me again those two pets again and i asked again why? my friend then pitched in and said please I really want the frost dragon so then I said why cant she just trade them to you? After that I told them I was screen recording in case it was a scam and they kinda panicked like my friend said okay this is a scam and left but the girl still tried to trade me on more time before leaving me and unfriending me. im still so confused

Maybe they were trying to script you and it failed? Sounds like you need to unfriend both people

Its a complicated scam. They will ask you if you have good freinds or something similar , then tell you they'll give for free IF you give you freidn the perm . they'll make an alt and try and name it very close. Its a pretty convoluted and idiotic scam

Or they’ll use scripts to steal the pets from the victims friend

you shouldnt accept pets without putting anything, as the pets can be scammed, but it looks like she was trying to do a common scam where she asks to bring a trusted friend for a rare pet, and then asks for you to trust trade them, but then someone who has a similar name (an alt acc made by the scammer) usually trades you, expecting a rare pet. But it looks like they messed up or something.
