No words, my daughter is heartbroken due to scammer

I know Roblox is only a game and this may sound like a sob story but I need this story to be heard. My daughter started playing on Roblox last year and had created some amazing friendships. During the week she will earn some pocket money and spend it on adopt me pets. You will probably know where this is going :(. She spends so many hours a day on this game and it brings her so much joy to train these pets and even lets her close friends play with the special ones. So tonight I heard a sob and panic coming from my daughters room, she checked her inventory and noticed that 8+ pets had disappeared. She had recently purchased 5 ladybugs to turn one into a neon one (idk how it fully works) but she cherished these items. It was at this point we knew she had been scammed, so it turns out that on the 22nd Feb at 2.36am someone had hacked her account and traded all the item (I can't tell you the full list but it included the ladybugs,dragons, legendary something?). We have contacted the roblox support team and adopt me support but I have little faith, I feel like someone has stolen my daughters happiness and thats may sound like abit over the top but if you could see her face you would see how heartbroken she is , the user who scammed her is called JBBC11, I just really hope karma bites him back because what he/she has done is vile. Must have some sad little life to scam children on a game and take away their happiness, if anyone has read this far...thank you for your time and I hope this raises some awareness.
I know Im a bit late to this and I dont want to sound mean or anything but "adopt me" staff is doing a very poor job at helping scammed people, most of the time they ignore all reports (no matter where you send them) and pet returns are awfully infrequent (n)
 
They have only doing poor jobs because there are hundred of thousand scammer out there, against how many staff? 100? You try to get you group of friend and moderate all those scammer. They will not catch everything .
in all of adopt me scam history i've only seen them reverse about 5 trades, stop trying to defend them and just understand that they don't care
