Pocket money, saving and spending, sentence 3
Loot boxes and mystery packs are like gambling, because you pay without knowing what you get; and anyone online who asks you for a gift card or money is almost certainly a scammer.
Who acts: Loot boxes, you, anyone · What happens: be, pay, know, get, ask · To what, where: you, scammer
