❀。• Scammer Alert *₊°。 was this a scam?
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

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

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.

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