Hi all.
Pictures are shared all the time in our rooms, so here is a reminder of how to share them without giving away more than you meant to.
Check the picture before you send it
- Look at the background. Mail with your address on it, a window with a recognizable view, a work badge or a car number plate can all identify you.
- Faces, tattoos and birthmarks are easy to recognize. If you would not want a picture tied back to you, leave them out.
- Once a picture is sent, you cannot take it back. Assume it can be saved and passed on.
Watch out for pressure and threats
A common scam goes like this: someone builds up trust quickly, asks for intimate pictures or a webcam session, then threatens to send the images to your friends or family unless you pay. If this happens to you:
- Do not pay. Paying rarely ends it, and usually leads to more demands.
- Stop replying, keep a copy of the messages, and report the user to a moderator.
- Report it to your local police. You have done nothing wrong by asking for help.
Adults only
Our rooms are strictly for adults aged 18 and over. Never share, ask for or accept sexual images of anyone under 18. Accounts involved are banned, and we report this to the authorities.
Enjoy.
