Protect Your Personal Information
Never share details that could identify you in real life. This includes your full name, home address, phone number, email, workplace, school, or social media handles. A good rule: if it's private, keep it private.
Use a Nickname
Avoid using your real name as a username. Choose something generic that doesn't reveal your identity. This adds an important layer of anonymity.
Keep Conversations Light
Especially early in a chat, stick to neutral topics—hobbies, travel, movies, music, food. Avoid discussing sensitive subjects like politics, religion, or personal struggles with strangers.
Never Send Money or Gifts
Scammers often build trust before asking for money, gifts, or financial help. If someone asks for anything of value, end the conversation immediately and report them.
Beware of "Too Good to Be True"
If someone claims to be a model, celebrity, or unusually attractive and wants to move the conversation to another platform or website, be suspicious. This is a common scam tactic.
Use Platform Tools
ChatRandom provides "Next" and "Report" buttons for a reason. If a conversation feels uncomfortable, skip to the next person. If someone violates our guidelines, report them immediately—this helps protect the entire community.
Video Chat Safely
Ensure you're in a private, appropriate location before starting video chat. Be mindful of your background and what's visible on camera. Remember that others may be recording (which violates our terms), so conduct yourself accordingly.
Trust Your Instincts
If something feels off, it probably is. You're under no obligation to continue a conversation. Politely end the chat and move on. Your comfort and safety come first.
Don't Meet in Person
Never agree to meet someone from a random chat platform in real life. These are strangers, and meeting them offline can be extremely dangerous. Keep all interactions on the platform.

Take Breaks
