Stop Kids From Spending Online | Roanoke News

Kids are falling for wild TikTok scams promising free money via apps like Zelle or Cash App — but Consumer Reports says it’s a total lie. Even worse, real cash is disappearing fast through in-game purchases like Robux or Gems, with one kid blowing $2,000 on Roblox before his grandma noticed. These virtual coins don’t feel like real money, making it easy for kids to overspend.
