Reminder: You can publish games with in-island transactions starting January 9. If you haven’t started building yet, here’s a quick step-by-step tutorial video to get rolling. Be sure to check out the new monetization guidelines resource in the In-Island Transactions Overview: https://t.co/hryiEGcm3A

All islands are reviewed before they are published and made available to players. If you suspect an island of breaking our rules, you can report the game to Epic for review. On January 9, you’ll see additional options for reporting in-island transactions in Fortnite. If we find a violation, we will take action against the island and/or developer.

If we’ve taken down an island for breaking our rules, all players who purchased that offer in the last 20 days will have their V-Bucks returned. Any other V-Bucks returns will depend on when you purchased the in-island item and where you are located (for example, some regions in Europe).

Hey ImCursedOne01 - this will give developers of all sizes more agency over their creative and commercial decisions. All islands are reviewed before they are published. If you believe an island is breaking our rules, you can use our reporting tools and we will review. We’re adding new options for reporting in-island transactions in Fortnite at launch. When we find a violation, we’ll take action.

while yes the scammer would be targeted by the FTC, it's hosted on Epic Games' platform. I'm not a lawyer but, if you let me host a game with lootboxes (which are illegal in most countries nowadays) and it ends up with kids spending money in those crates. I'd say that it's ground for troubles with the FTC.

Regular reporting works. When islands get enough reports, moderation looks at an island as a whole (which will include transactions) without any report input. This is the fairest system because it forces moderation to go over everything rather than agree/disagree with specific reports.
