Users will need to upload a photo of government ID or a passport before they are prompted to capture a live selfie on the spot. Roblox have said they will be capturing “liveness and likeness” with their technology to ensure the ID matches the person signing up. Roblox have confirmed they will not store any ID document or selfie scan in their system. ### Important - Omegle.Com ​Parents, please be aware of a new chat website called Omegle.com.
