Following hat has daily hacked / stolen accounts selling this hat: Perfectly Legitimate Business Hat - Roblox
All these accounts near the red line are from 2009 and are pged, this is a daily thing that happens and it lowers value from people who have gotten this hat through legit means
Expected behavior
All the accounts under the red line banned, and possibly doing some type of update that prevents you from selling / trading if you haven’t logged in for years
This is less of a bug and more of a feature request
Most of these accounts haven’t been utilized in over a decade and have practically no activity on them. It’d make sense to lock many of these really old accounts down as the owners clearly don’t care about them anymore (or lost the information; unrecoverable). Due to previous incidents with moderators overseas, Roblox keeps an eye on old accounts like YeahBoii11 and TE0C when transfers like these happened. TE0C was compromised with the “unterm method” about a month ago, and had its EST & Bobbie hoard get sold off. Roblox took action on these before they could get transfered again.
They’ve been killing the resale price of this item because of the tens of thousands of copies being taken from these old accounts and resold, being put into circulation. This makes it unfair to the users who purchased the hat for much higher in previous years, when the releases weren’t to this scale.
The limited economy always fluctuates and overall always gets higher each year, but this is a forced circulation increase.
Other smalls without such copies like Adurite Antlers are hardly affected by this, and instead fluctuate depending on the season.
I understand what this post is saying, though I do believe prevention starts with the improvement of account security. This isn’t the only item affected by compromised accounts bombing resale prices.
I’m not sure how this is related to bug reports in anyway other than the category. They can’t do anything because most of the original owners are inactive.
Your best option is to report them through “Report Abuse,” and hope that they lock the accounts.
the issue with that is there’s hundreds and is almost impossible to report them because of the daily pgeds that happen
This isn’t really a bug, plus this happens with other limiteds as well.
Thank you for the report. We are looking into the issue and will circle back with an update
it does, but not at this level
