Are you among the avid players of Roblox? If you are, then you are most probably familiar with Robux. Getting tempted to be greedy? We understand you. For beginners in Roblox or those hearing Robux for the first time, Robux is the in-game currency used to buy in-game upgrades or avatar accessories.
However, according to the website of SWGfl, a charity dedicated to empowering the safe and secure use of technology worldwide (actually, many gaming experts are also warning about this), gamers should beware of third-party sites that offer things like free or cheap Robux.
Sure, you can shop and purchase Robux from external websites or websites outside Roblox, but not all these sites are legit. Some of them are scams and must be avoided. This article will review four websites that offer Robux but are actually scam websites. They are:
- Prorobux.com
- Robuxify.me
- Boombux.org
- Buxprize.org
But First, What Is Robux?
As previously mentioned, Robux pertains to the premium currency within the Roblox world, which you can use to buy new games, private servers, and other goodies.
How To Get Robux
Getting Robux generally happens in two ways. You can either earn the currency or buy it. The easiest way, of course, is by buying it. Believe it or not, some supermarkets offer gift cards where there is a Roblox code you can redeem online.
You can also purchase them on the Buy Robux page on Roblox. This is safe. And if you want to venture into chances, some Roblox games give Robux entirely for free.
Or, if you want to buy Robux at a lower price, perfect for those regularly needing this, you can become a Roblox Premium Member.
Can You Earn Robux For Free?
As you have heard earlier, you can earn Robux for free. But you will have to work hard for it. You can either create a game or sell clothing items in a group.
The first takes a lot of effort. You will need to implement in-game purchases where you can earn a percentage. You can also make your game in a pay-to-play format, charging people who play it.
The second is a bit easier compared to the first option. You can create clothing within Roblox, where there are already templates for shirts and pants. You can also design your own and add them to your Roblox Group, setting prices for them. If your designs are patronized in the Avatar Store, you can earn.
But apparently, the easiest way is to head over to websites to purchase Robux. But not all of these websites are safe and secure. Let us take a look at some of the websites tagged as scams.
Prorobux.com
Interestingly, launching the website normally, meaning without VPN and the like, what you get is a “Can’t reach this page” message. We used Microsoft Edge to test the website. So here and behold, you know this is not a 100 percent legit website.
The website KRVP also reviewed Prorobux.com, and they said that this website for Robux is “suspicious.”
KRVP stated, “… We can assure you that using Prorobux.com for getting Robux is suspicious.”
Let us head over to the next one, Robuxify.me.
Robuxify.me
So first, we personally visited the website Robuxify.me. It launches and shows you a very minimalist homepage with nothing but its header and a message that reads, “Claim a free Robux package… Thanks to our sponsors, you can now get up to 10,000 Robux – for free,” and a call-to-action button, perhaps if you are ready to make the purchase.
Wait up, getting up to 10,000 Robux for free? Sounds too good to be true, isn’t it?
The website Dot Trusty also reviewed Robuxify.me, and here is their verdict, “Robuxify.me is likely a scam, as there have been no reports of anyone actually receiving free Robux from them.”
So think twice before getting Robux from this website.
Boombux.org
As usual, we launched the website, but before we even got to whatever homepage it has, we got a message page from Microsoft Edge saying we should not continue to this website, as it has phishing threats that may try to steal personal or financial information.
From here on, we can say that this website is not safe.
But if you need more assurance, we consulted the website Scam Detector about what they say about Boombux.org. They said they do not endorse it as it has a very low trusting rank.
“The website is suspicious, while genuine reviews don’t help it much,” Scam Detector added.
Buxprize.org
Lastly, you have Buxprize.org. This is another website that claims to provide free Robux.
Interestingly, when you search for what others are saying about this website, you will find that many support and promote its use, saying it is legitimate.
However, at the end of the day, and after careful evaluation, this website is also a scam and, therefore, should be avoided.
Moreover, the website Hardifal said they did a search about the existence of Buxprize.org only to find that the site is inactive and inaccessible.
So there you have four Robux websites that you should tick off your list. They are scams.
Conclusion: Do Not Fall Prey To These Websites
The last thing you want to happen is to risk your gaming experience because of choosing to patronize Robux websites that are actually scams. Before heading over to acquire Robux, we recommend that you also do your own research to see what others are saying about the Robux website you are eyeing. You can find other websites that are safe and legitimate. You do not want to purchase with your money and get nothing, right?
