Hi guys, I've got another debunk video for you. Sorry for not uploading in a while! I know it is now unusual for me to create Roblox related videos, but the "free robux" and "promo code" videos being uploaded to YouTube have gotten pretty bad recently, and it was actually starting to tick me off.

PART 2: • "FREE ROBUX" Videos/Websites Debunked...
If you are still looking for free Robux... well, I'm sorry to burst your bubble here.
I spent a lot of time researching, editing, and reverse engineering a handful of these videos (some postings by "ItsNrz," "Hydra - Roblox," "StickMasterJoel" etc).
Other things to mention:
- The creators of the videos are mostly pretending to be Stickmasterluke. obviously they are not him, and Stickmasterluke does not have a YouTube channel. Also, these sites aren't used by Roblox staff or popular YouTubers.
- The creators also all seem to be of similar nature and/or are associated with their own generator site (name on domain or page). I feel as if these people are some sort of team.
- As for the videos themselves, they actually violate YouTube's Community guidelines because they are misleading. If you report the videos, you'd be doing a favor!- I didn't test every website, but they all have the same nature. You may not end up at the survey site I mentioned in the video, but you'll end up in the survey loop.
- I said that promo codes can only be made by Roblox staff. The same goes for gamecard codes. NO generator works for these either.
- The comments in the videos that say the generators work or etc. are either bots, or clueless users.

(Also see the "Privacy Policy" and "Terms" links on the survey websites (with caution) if you wish. I probably cannot link them here.)
