Overview

  • Roblox’s cease-and-desist letter accuses Schlep of conducting simulated child-endangerment conversations, soliciting personal information and encouraging off-platform contact in violation of its Terms of Use and Community Standards.
  • Schlep, 22, says his predator-catching content has helped prompt six arrests and that decoy interactions avoid initiating sexual talk to prevent entrapment.
  • He shared the letter publicly and claims Roblox terminated all accounts he has held since age eight while failing to act on some serious safety reports he submitted.
  • Roblox asserts that independent sting operations jeopardize official investigations and insists that harmful activity be reported through its moderation systems and law enforcement partners.
  • Prominent creators like JiDion and MoistCr1TiKaL have joined supporters on social media with #FreeSchlep and #BoycottRoblox hashtags.
