Overview

• The civil complaint was filed in Guilford County Superior Court by a mother on behalf of her daughter, identified as Jane Doe.
• The suit alleges a predator posed as a child to gain trust on Roblox, then moved conversations to text messages and coerced explicit images using Robux as payment and leverage.
• Plaintiffs claim Roblox relied on self-reported birthdates, previously allowed adult-to-child messaging, and failed to provide adequate parental controls, citing exposure to sexualized experiences described in the filing.
• The family seeks a jury trial and damages, arguing Roblox prioritized growth over child protection and misled parents about safety.
• Roblox has stated that user safety is a top priority and says it uses advanced technology, 24/7 human moderation, and partnerships with law enforcement and child-safety groups; the platform reports tens of millions of daily users, many under 13.
