PSA: Those BLOX.GREEN chat messages in Roblox games are scam bots

If you’ve jumped into a Roblox game recently and noticed spam messages advertising BLOX.GREEN or BLOX.LAND, you’re not alone. Over the past few days, players across different games have been flooded with chat messages from bots promoting these suspicious sites that promise free Robux. Spoiler alert: they’re scams, and you should stay far away.

The reports started piling up on Reddit and X in the past few days, with frustrated players sharing screenshots of nearly identical messages popping up in their game chats. That said, plenty of these posts have been removed by mods, likely to prevent users from spamming about it. But here’s one post that’s still around:

The pattern was clear: automated accounts were joining games, spamming their message, then disappearing before anyone could report them.

These bots typically join a server, blast the chat with something like “I just got TONS of ROBUX using BLOX.GREEN! Visit BLOX.GREEN on your browser to generate Robux instantly!” and then vanish. The speed at which they operate makes reporting difficult since they’re often gone within seconds. Game developers on the Roblox forum have been sounding the alarm too, noting that some of their players have already fallen for the scam and lost their accounts.

So what happens if you actually visit these sites? BLOX.GREEN (which often redirects to BLOX.LAND) presents itself as a free Robux generator. The site looks polished enough, complete with fake testimonials and progress bars designed to make you think it’s legitimate. But here’s the catch: to supposedly claim your free Robux, you’ll need to complete “verification” tasks. These usually involve filling out surveys, downloading apps, watching ads, or sharing your personal information.

The reality is that no Robux ever materializes. Instead, the scammers make money from each task you complete through affiliate programs and ad revenue. Worse, you might be exposing yourself to malware, unwanted subscriptions, or having your data harvested. Some variations of these scams even try to steal account credentials or trick users into connecting their Roblox accounts to third-party services.

X users have been sharing their encounters with these bots too, with many expressing confusion about whether the messages were legitimate. Players from games like Blox Fruits have also reported seeing the spam, showing this isn’t limited to just one or two games. The bots seem to be targeting popular experiences where they can reach the most players.

If you see these messages in your game, don’t click the links. Report the bot immediately if you can catch their username before they leave. Roblox will never give away free Robux through random third-party websites, and the only legitimate ways to get Robux are through the official Roblox website, authorized gift card retailers, or the Premium subscription. Game developers have been implementing chat filters and anti-bot scripts, but the scammers keep adapting.

For anyone who’s already visited these sites or entered their information, change your Roblox password immediately, enable two-step verification, and run a malware scan on your device. BLOX.GREEN and similar sites are designed to exploit players, especially younger ones who might not recognize the warning signs. Spread the word to your friends and anyone you see falling for these scams.
