Fact Check:  Ring Video Of Man Hooking Up With Mom Of Kid He Met On Roblox Is NOT Authentic -- It's A Skit Actor Acting

Is a Ring video of a man pulling up to the house of a boy he met playing Roblox to hook up with his mom authentic? No, that's not true: The social media account where the video originated describes itself as "making skits for entertainment." The account includes dozens of other skits recorded at the same front door with some of the same actors.

The video (archived here) was published on the @ringinthebedroom June 3, 2025. The caption on the video read:

Man pulls up on the kid he met on Roblox! Man gets directions to the child's house!

This is what the post looked like on TikTok at the time of writing:

The The 1 minute, 14-second video, recorded from the perspective of a Ring doorbell camera, shows a boy sitting on a porch as a small truck pulls up. A man starts talking to the child as he gets out of the truck. This is a partial script of the skit:

Man: Hey buddy.
Boy: Hey.
Man: Are you the kid off Roblox?
Boy: Yeah.
Man: What are you doing?
Boy: I'm waiting on you.
Man: I normally don't meet kids at their house, but I made an exception for this.

The video is then edited to show the boy standing and moving toward the door to speak to his mother:

Boy: Mom, I have someone here to meet you.
Mom: Who are you?
Man: I met your son off Roblox.
Mom: What are you doing here?
Man: He gave me his address.
Mom: You need to come inside. What?
Man: We play a lot on Roblox.
Mom: OK.
Man: And he gave me his address.
Mom: So, you showed up here?
Man: Yeah.
Mom: Why? For him?
Man: He said his mom was hot, his username is 'my mom is hot.'
Mom: Are you trying to hook me up with somebody?
Boy: No.
Man: He sent pictures of you.
Mom: You had the man come to our house?
Man: You look just like the pictures do. You're beautiful.
Mom: Thank you, it's just very odd.

The video concludes with the woman invited the man into her home.

The Facebook account (archived here) of Ringinthebedroom contains many of the same skit videos as as the TikTok account. It acknowledges that they are scripted skits.
