Safety Tips

Chat for a while before accepting a date. Get to know the person online before meeting them.

Have a video call before the meeting. It's a great way to confirm that the person matches the profile.

Never share sensitive personal information such as home address, workplace or financial details.

Check the person's social profiles if they share them. It can help you verify their identity.

Trust your instincts. If something doesn't feel right, don't feel obligated to continue.

Always choose a public place for the first date: a bar, a restaurant or a busy park.

Arrange your own transport. Don't rely on the other person to get home.

Tell a friend or family member where you're going, who with and when you expect to be back.

Share your live location with someone you trust.

Never leave your drink or personal belongings unattended.

Use a unique, strong password for your E-Raiden account.

Never send money to people you meet online, for any reason.

Beware of suspicious links shared in chat. Don't click on links you don't trust.

Immediately report fake profiles or suspicious behaviour using the "Report" button.

Do not share intimate photos with people you don't know well. These images could be misused.

Do they immediately ask to move to another messaging app? That could be a red flag.

Avoid anyone who pushes for an immediate meeting without wanting to chat first.

Be wary of overly dramatic stories or requests for financial help.

If someone refuses a video call or dodges direct questions, be cautious.

Watch out for possessive or controlling behaviour already visible in chat.

If you feel in danger during a date, call 112 immediately.

You can block and report any user from the app at any time.

If someone threatens or harasses you, keep screenshots and contact the authorities.
