How to protect your kids from scams, phishing and malware

Kids are prime targets for "free Robux" and "free V-Bucks" scams. A filter blocks the known bad sites; a quick conversation handles the rest.

Short answer

Sheepdog Filter's Scams & malware protection blocks known scam, phishing and malware sites for every device by default, from threat lists updated every hour. Pair it with a simple rule: nobody gives away free Robux, V-Bucks or gift cards.

What gets blocked

The Scams & malware protection is on by default. It blocks:

  • phishing sites that copy real logins (Roblox, Fortnite, Apple, banks),
  • malware and fake download sites,
  • known scam and fake-shop domains,
  • and tricks like disguised addresses that hide a bad site behind a good-looking one.

The talk that works

  • Nobody gives away free Robux, V-Bucks or skins. Any site that says so is trying to steal the account.
  • Never type your password into a site you reached from a link. Go to the app instead.
  • Gift cards are for gifts. Nobody legitimate asks to be paid in gift cards.
  • If it's urgent and scary, it's probably a scam. Come and ask a grown-up.

If an account is stolen

Change the password from a different device, turn on two-step verification, and contact the game's support. Then check the Activity tab to see which site it came from, and block it.
