Very sorry to hear something like that happened to you. You might be able to ask a moderator for a refund, however its unlikely that you will get any robux back. Hopefully everything gets better.
The only way to really be able to ensure no one scams you is to learn these skills yourself instead of hiring.
If you do want to hire though, do backround checks and stuff. Don’t hire a rnadom guy who claims to be a programmer and has no portfolio or anything for example.
Yes I’m learning how to code now, but I acknowledge this process will take me years . That is why I want to start making projects now and hiring people
Maybe, contact Roblox support. Ig that’s what the 30 days pending is for. Also ist illegal to scam in almost every country. You could get legal advise and sue the person, if he scammed you. I always want to point out, when smo gets scammed that the internet is not a place without laws. I also tell that anyone I work for.
I want to point out, that after my informations you don’t have to pay the court price, but the person who lost. (I my country, idk if it’s like that on your country to). Of course, you could also sue for damages.
But I don’t think it’s certain that you’ll win, I mean he delivered, just with a lack of quality.
To prevent something like this, I have a ToS that the other side has to agree to.
Usually, anything under ~$1,000 (USD) is considered ‘petty theft.’ This is not to defame what occurred; scamming is very much unjustified and wrong, however, a lawsuit based on petty theft would never hold.
I can read code and understand what it’s doing, yet I don’t have good logic to write something by myself. However I only began learning to code once I looked at the scammer’s code. ( His code is really really bad apparently. Worse than chatgpt )
This is weird. It’s a strange mix of good practices (type checking, profileservice) and just totally weird choices (using values > attributes, lack of proper variable usage)
I can’t tell if the person who wrote it was under the influence and was blinking in and out of sobriety or what, but some of it is good and some of it is just esoteric at best.
This scares me knowing I want to learn lua because he said he had 5 years of experience . I do not want to practice coding for 5 years if people are gonna flame me like that
