Could someone be monitoring your device?
Consider whether opening Telegram, saving messages, changing passwords or clearing history could place you at greater risk. Use a safer device if one is available.
Evidence starter guide
Good evidence can make a difference. Start safely.
- Capture usernames, profile links, dates and times.
- Save original messages where possible before blocking or deleting.
- Screenshot the full context, not only the worst line.
- Build a simple timeline of what happened and when.
- Store copies somewhere safe and backed up.
I can't safely call for help
Use this if you are in immediate danger and cannot speak.
This site does not dispatch emergency services. Use official emergency routes first.
United Kingdom
Text 999 only if you are already registered with emergencySMS. Include the service needed, exact location, what is happening and that you cannot talk safely.
United States
Text 911 if available in your area. Include your exact location, emergency type and that you cannot talk safely. If unavailable, you may receive a bounce-back.
If you can make a voice call safely, call 999 in the UK or 911 in the US first.
