End the live interaction before doing anything else
Leave when someone threatens, coerces, scams, exposes private material, ignores consent, appears underage, or repeatedly returns to a refused topic. Safety matters more than winning an argument.
Leave before you report
Report and block
when a boundary is crossed.
Stop the interaction, choose the control that fits the behavior, and describe what happened in direct, factual language.

GOOD TO KNOW
Reporting is not an emergency service. Contact local emergency services when someone faces immediate danger.
Describe the behavior, not a diagnosis
Choose the closest report reason and state what happened in concrete terms. Include the sequence of events and relevant visible behavior without adding sensitive information that is not needed.
Use blocking to prevent unwanted contact where available
Blocking is appropriate after harassment, repeated unwanted contact, threats, impersonation, or a clear boundary violation. It is not necessary to warn the other person first.
QUICK ANSWERS
What people usually ask.
Should I take a screenshot?
Only if it is lawful, safe, and needed for a report. Do not preserve or redistribute illegal or exploitative material; report it through the appropriate channel.
Does a report guarantee an outcome?
No. A report provides information for review. Response time and outcome depend on available evidence, policy, and the systems handling the case.
