Account Mistakenly flagged for "Giving PII"

Hey folks!

So I wasn’t sure where this should go, so I am sorry but I am sorta of desperate as my friend is having a hard time with his account. Earlier today his account was mistaken flagged for “Giving PII.” All it said was this:


All it is, is his username. Its not his actual name, its literally just RoboRaptor and a couple of other random numbers but this is what the ticket reviewed and evidently saw as “PII.”

He said that Roblox gave him a message saying something about a warning and then he was able to get back into his account however his violation & appeals thing still says his appeal(s) were denied. So I was wondering has anyone else dealt with this before? Is his account safe? He is still waiting for word back from Roblox support about this matter.

Thanks in advance,
Cyber

​don’t panic. if it was just a warning and he clicked “reactivate” to get back into his account, he is safe. the automated PII filter is heavily flawed and hyper-aggressive. sometimes random numbers in a string look like a phone number or zip code to the bot, or a combination of letters accidentally matches a real-world name.

​as for the “appeal rejected” status: that just means an outsourced worker (or another bot) speed-read the ticket and hit the deny button to clear their quota. this is standard roblox zendesk behavior.

​tell ur friend to stop spamming support tickets about it. just take the warning and move on. pushing it further with support usually just traps u in an automated loop of automated rejections.

Alright! Thank you! He said something did pop up, however I think he said he accidently closed it. But none the less he is able to access his account. So I think all he is currently trying to do is make sure his account is safe.
