Omegle recaptcha

hello i was going about my business on omegle talking to people trying to make friends and i came across someone who said they could tell where i lived (i've encountered this before) so i said something like yup dude you are the third one already, but cool party trick and we had a short little conversation that couldn't have lasted longer than 10 minutes and then the next time i tried to start a new chat reCaptcha popped up as it did the next time and the next and so on . i did some research and believe that this person somehow tampered with my ip address so omegle thinks i am a robot now. (ive tried restarting my router, downloading vpns and nothing has seemed to work so im asking would you be able to take my ip address off the blacklist or the list of robot ip addresses

Omegle no reason for ban

Hi, I was singing while playing my ukulele on the video portion of Omegle. I wanted to see what people thought because I want to start a small street performance for a little extra money to put into my savings account. Everything was going well and people were actually very nice and supportive. As I was going to another person, my screen said that I got banned for inappropriate behavior. Then it sent me to an random page with a prerecorded video of a woman stripping. I immediately clicked off as I did not want to see this. After I went back onto the Omegle website there was an option for an unmonitored section. I attempted to sing and play to the people who were on this but they all were there for something else, not to listen and give their opinion. I reluctantly closed my laptop because I only managed to get about four opinions before I was banned.

Typically, I would just wait for the ban to pass and try again. But as I was going through the monitored section when I was playing, many people were doing inappropriate things. Some were masturbating, flirting, and even asking me to do very risqué things. I did not mind the compliments such as "you are very pretty." But some men said that I was "sexy." As a fifteen year old girl I should not be seeing older men being sexual with me in any kind of way.

The main problem I have with this ban was that I got banned for singing and playing my ukulele while the men and women who were masturbating and being pedophiles were not banned. I am not angry, just confused and would like an explanation.
Kindly
-Abby

Omegle banned for bad behavior without bad behavior

I'm chatting gently and not rude, interested in natural science, but after a long interesting chat I try to access the next week and I got banned without motivation. Why? What can I do? This is not the first time, please do something. I'm a really polite guy, but that doesn't matters. Omegle has no customer service, the advice reports "the ban wont last forever" but i'm banned from nearly three weeks, that is rude and not fair.

I would like to bring to your notice that my number is being circulated at your app for no reason. Kindly look into it at the earliest and stop it. There should be firm guidelines when somebody is putting some contact details at your website. Some OTP service or something. Your site is being used to harass people around.

Omegle I found child porn

I found a child predator promoting a link he says is child porn. He says he sees nothing wrong with it. I took many photos of the chat. I've tried to keep him talking as I don't know what to do. I'm talking with my friends and have no idea what to do. I don't want to get in trouble by my parents or if the link is fake the police. My dad works for the state too. I'm honestly really scared and concerned for this little girl

Omegle Giving out my phone number

I'd like to make a complain about someone I do not know giving out my number on Omegle. I do not use the website and do not have an account there at all.

This is now the third time I have received random text from strangers claiming that they have gotten my number from Omegle and saying I am either Lina or Emily or Amira (maybe there are a few more that I may now know about). The first time was about a month ago, and I thought "okay, maybe it's just one time", and then a few weeks I get text messages and calls from a few other strangers claiming the same and saying that I promised nudes via Omegle, again, I have never logon to Omegle.

I am tired of getting these calls and messages from the random strangers for the above claimed, I do have my number published online strictly because of Interior Design Consultation purposes.

Please do something about it, I suggest having a filter that filters out my number on your chat defaults. Unless you would suggest I go to the authorities i.e. the police. Thanks.

Omegle Omegle won't match me with people with the same interests

I have a quite big list of interests on Omegle, and I never had problems getting matched with someone who shared at least some of them.
I haven't been able to do that for the past two days: no matter how many interests I put in or how popular they are, I always get the "Omegle couldn't find anyone who shares interests with you, so this stranger is completely random. Try adding more interests!" automatic message. I know it can't be true, 'cause it's always worked for me ad some of my interests are REALLY popular.
I tried changing browser, IP, and even incognito mode. Still getting the same message.
I'd like this problem to be fixed, or else I'll have to go look for another IM site.

Omegle Being banned/recaptcha

I am now recieving the message of "Error connecting to the server. Please try again" every time I go onto Omegles chat.
If I have been banned it is a great shame because I have used this website many times to make new friends.
Before I was supposedly banned I kept recieving ReCaptcha, despite the fact that I am not a bot on the site. However when I saw bots on the site I did click off the chat so I didnt waste time reading what they had to say. Please Omegle, unban me. I am a real person that really loves your site, I think that it is a great idea.
Thank you very much.

Someone is going up here and giving personal information out about me. They are giving out my phone number, snapchat and even one person knew where I lived. This is been happening on and off for about 3 weeks. Is there anything that can be done asap? This is getting completely out of hand and I don't want anything drastic to happen to me if they know these kinds of things about me.

Omegle A post with my personal kik username

I found out that someone posted something asking for explicit photos to be sent to my kik, they also made a sexual comment. They then proceeded to share my username. I have now been getting explicit photos from men and am only 16 years old. I did not write the post and would like it taken down as soon as possible. The date of the incident was 12/08/16.

Omegle Pervert predator threatening my friend

This happened on the 1st of October 2016 around 10:30-11:12 UK time. My friend told me that when they were on omagle this guy asked them to do "things" but they wouldn't do it and then the random person threatened them saying that they have their pictures and pi address's and will put it on the deepweb and my friend is in serious danger. Its not clear but the deepweb is a dangerous place. I'm sure she didn't go to the unmoderated section so I can only hope the moderators saw his threat. If the moderators only did something like ban him then they need to actually send police to his house and arrest him for threats about the deep web. Omeagle should be banned why is sit still here. Please help her.

Omegle Terrible place!

So I was really bored and decided to try Omegle. The whole thing seemed like a great idea and I heard a lot about Omegle.
What do I hate about Omegle? Well, the main reason why I left Omegle was because this site was full of nasty and pervert people.
I met only two normal people there and we had a great conversation. But the rest... it's terrible, just go and check it yourself.
I do not understand how Omegle staff allows that?
There are many people on Omegle who are naked, rude, nasty, ignorant! Terrible place!

Omegle Taboo roleplays, people make me afraid they're going to do more then roleplay.

My name's Aaron, and I'll openly admit I'm into having taboo roleplay ideas played out on me (rape, snuff, etc) but I never do my roleplays with non-consenting adults, and they never even hint at going anything beyond just a roleplay. However, the people I have met in my free time on both of those sites have made me afraid that they are going to take their fantasies beyond just fantasy and try to act out their fetishes, having obvious results based on the context. On freechatnow.com men such as "rick21" or "olderman48" are the two that made me have this fear primarily. I wanted to write down this complaint so other people could be aware of what happens in these chat rooms and can consciously avoid them.

Omegle Threats and child porno on omegle

I was just casually browsing the Omegle video chat when this person with their webcam turned off began chatting with me. He stated that he had taken a video of my face and threatened to post it to a pornographic website. He told me that if i didn't want my face on these sites, to squeeze my breasts together (initially without a shirt, but I convinced him to let me do it with my sweater on). He had once again taken a video of me doing this, and continued threatening me, that I had to stay on the chat and do what he said or else he would upload it. Of course I begged him to stop and didn't do anything more with the fear of once again being recorded, but he decided to be a perverted freak and continue to threaten me. The catch is, I am under 18 years old and this guy and any porn site can be reported to the police for child pornography If they have this video of me. This was totally involuntary and I was being threatened, and I couldn't find an Omegle complaint site so I found the closest thing to it. If anyone finds a girl squeezing her boobs together through a sweater that says "I don't play the field, I rule the sidelines", then please report it to the site and get it removed. You and anyone who sees that video can also be charged with child pornography.

The same thing happened to me and my friend, we were playing a game that seemed harmless but it wasn’t, they wanted us to show our bra, show our breast, and our butt. I just showed him me wearing shorts and he said he recorded it and threatened to post it on Facebook and porn websites. If you see 2 girls wearing a blue hoodie, circular glasses and a green wig on, and then another person with half white and half red wig on a maroon shirt that says “I’m all about naps” please report it! We are under the age of 18 and it was involuntary.

Omegle Horrible child pornography.

Hello, my name is courtney I really hope this complaint is takin very very seriously! I was crying for almost an hour after a man was on his webcam and showed up in my conversation box on omegle. I saw he had a small baby with him. The man was in his mid 40's I would say, and his son was only a baby and a couple months old :' (I asked him "why is your baby on here?!" and he said "because he wants it" I said... "he wants what!?" and he said "my dick" and I said "excuse me! Hes a f*ckin child!" and he said I know and I told him he was sick in the head and he said I know, and he showed me his penis. And his baby was sitting on his lap this whole time and he told me his baby sucks his penis for him :' (I hope this is the right complaint website... I was balling my eyes out for an hour I cant unsee the horrible thing I saw. Please find him. He was what looked to be either indian from (india) or some other ethnicity but he had darker skin, black short hair, and his baby had black hair as well. He had a picture of eeyore from whinnie the pooh on the wall behind him and a couch behind him please find this man! Please stop him! I hope that poor poor baby boy is okay... Save that poor child...

About Omegle

Screenshot Omegle
Omegle.com is an online chat platform that connects users with strangers from around the world for one-on-one conversations. The service is free to use and does not require users to register, emphasizing anonymity and ease of use. Omegle offers several modes of communication, including text and video chat options. Users can start a chat session on the website and are randomly paired with another person in a "chatroulette" style.

One of the distinctive features of Omegle is the ability to add interests before initiating a chat, which the system uses to match users with someone who has similar interests, potentially improving the relevance of the conversation. However, if no matching interests are found, users are paired with a completely random stranger.

Omegle also includes a "Spy Mode," where a user can pose a question to two strangers and observe their conversation without participating, or be one of the two strangers answering a question posed by a "spy."

The platform has a simple interface and does not offer additional features such as friend lists, profile creation, or account history. It is designed to provide a spontaneous and ephemeral chat experience with no strings attached. Users should be aware that conversations are not moderated, which can sometimes lead to inappropriate content or interactions. Omegle includes a warning on its site about the potential for exposure to explicit content and advises users to be cautious.

As a chat service, Omegle caters to individuals looking for a random chat experience and the opportunity to meet new people without the commitment of a social network. It is accessible from various devices with internet connectivity and does not require any software downloads to function.
