Safety Tips for Video Chat
Keep Personal Information Private
Never share your full name, address, workplace, phone number, or financial details during video chats. Use a nickname instead of your real name. Remember that anyone you're speaking with is a stranger until you've built significant trust over time.
Hide Your Location
Ensure your background doesn't reveal identifiable information—no mail with your address, school/work logos, or recognizable landmarks visible through windows. Consider using a virtual background or positioning your camera carefully.
Report Suspicious Behavior Immediately
If someone asks for money, personal information, or makes you uncomfortable, use VideoRoom's one-click report button. Our moderation team reviews reports within minutes. You can also block users instantly to prevent future contact.
Never Send Money or Gifts
No matter how compelling the story, never send money, gift cards, or other valuables to someone you've met online. Romance scams and emergency fake stories are common. Legitimate connections will respect your boundaries around finances.
If Meeting In-Person, Choose Public Places
If you decide to meet someone from VideoRoom in real life, always meet in a public location during daylight hours. Inform a friend or family member of your plans and share your location with them. Trust your instincts—if something feels wrong, leave immediately.
Beware of Screenshot/Recording Attempts
VideoRoom does not allow recording during calls, but bad actors may try to record using external software or even a phone pointed at the screen. Be alert for suspicious behavior, and end calls if you suspect recording.
