Beware of the Adopt Me Roblox trade scam! Here are 10 tips to protect yourself from scams and prevent losing your valuable pets.
If you are a fan of Adopt Me on Roblox, you will notice how thrilling trading and collecting rare pets can be. However, trading also comes with the risk of being scammed. Scammers today have become increasingly cunning, and new ways to scam are being created almost daily. If you want to ensure your inventory’s safety and trade with confidence, here are 10 tips to protect yourself from fraud.
10 Trading Tips To Avoid Scams in Adopt Me Roblox
1. Never Pay To Enter “Games”
Scammers often start fake mini-games like “Spin the Wheel” or “Pick-a-Door.” These usually require you to give a pet to participate, promising big prizes like a Frost Dragon. Don’t fall for it. If someone asks for a pet before the game even begins, it’s almost always a scam. Legitimate games will never ask for anything in advance.
2. Beware of Fake “Full Grown” Pets
Some players name their newborn pets “Full Grown” to trick you into paying more. Always check a pet’s age in the trade window. Even better, ask them to take the pet out in-game to show its actual age.
3. Don’t Trust Colored Pets and Eggs
A scammer might dye a regular egg pink and claim it’s a rare Pink Egg. They also recolor pets, turning Frost Dragons into Shadow Dragons. Don’t trust appearances alone. Check names, verify in the trade window, and know the real traits of rare pets.
4. Be Cautious With Livestream Giveaways
Some scammers stream on TikTok or YouTube, claiming they have rare pets to give away if you donate first. Even if they are live, they can still scam you. Sometimes, the “winners” are just their friends or alternate accounts.
5. Never Rush a Trade
Scammers often pressure you to accept immediately or say, “Someone else is going to.” Take your time. Verify the trade by reviewing it twice before pressing the accept button.
6. Use the Trading License
Always report scams using the in-game Trade License. If a trade looks shady or unfair, do it somewhere else. The license system exists to safeguard players.
7. Watch Out for Fake Flex Trades
A scammer might place a rare pet in the trade window, ask you to offer your rare pet, and then, just before you accept, quickly remove their pet and replace it with something else. Always verify the final window before confirming the trade.
8. Avoid Trust Trades
If someone says, “Trust me, I’ll give you your dream pet after,” don’t believe them. The game does not guarantee these trades, and they carry the highest scam risk. Only trade when both items are exchanged at the same time.
9. Don’t Trade Outside of the Game
Trading through social media (like Discord or Instagram) is risky. Scammers may show legendary pets in photos or videos, but they won’t actually send anything after you give them Robux or pets. Keep all trades in-game where they are secure.
10. Listen to Your Gut
If something doesn’t feel right, it probably isn’t. Whether it sounds too good to be true or someone is acting suspiciously, trust your instincts. You are better off walking away than losing a valuable pet.
Conclusion
Trading in Adopt Me can be fun and rewarding, but only if you stay smart and cautious. Following these tips can help avoid common scams and keep your hard-earned pets safe. Stay alert, double-check everything, and don’t trade with anyone you don’t know.
