i'm getting death threats by random people online

is it worth contacting police or should i just ignore them?

threats towards your anonymous media or your personal media? if they know your true identity then contact the authorities

@pentacorn see what happens...?
pentacorn · F
@emperorlily yeah, if that was the only place they were threatening you it should stop if you don't go there. in that case nothing would be happening
emperorlily · 22-25, F
@pentacorn right
I would use a different website or change your account. But if you feel particularly threatened, yeah, go to the police. They'll probably tell you what I just told you.
At least then it'll be documented though.
My step -brother threatened me physically, when I gave up and called the P.D., they told me to block him.

is this on SW?
or a different social site
twitter, face hook, lots of them hare riddled with Mean
if you contact police? they will say there is nothing they can do
and if we got calls like that every time it happened?
we would be doing nothing esle

are these persons that can see your real name?

@emperorlily have you left that place? and try not to use a pHONE for this stuff
a lap top can be more secure
emperorlily · 22-25, F
@Dshhh i was using my pc. and i've left the site and i'm not going to use it anymore

@emperorlily glad you are safe

You should get in contact with the police straight away things like this are very dangerous

I'm not sure how you think anyone could know your true identity but in the first instance I would contact the admins of the site. I think they are duty-bound under legislation in most countries to investigate such behaviour and, if necessary, provide the user's IP address etc to the police.

@cutieepie Excellent advice 👏
SW-User
@cutieepie yeah? What are the police gonna do

I want you to live forever

Sounds like either a bluffing troll or an angry person who wishes to feel big

On the off chance your public info is absilable, call the cops

If you're anonymous and the don't own the website, you can ignore it. In this day amd age many people don't mean what they say

Do they have access to your information, to where these random people could potentially track you down?
emperorlily · 22-25, F
@deadgerbil i have no idea. i was just talking on some random chat site and they got mad at me saying "i kill people like you for fun" "i have dead bodies in my back garden" and "i know exactly who you are" from what i understand i've never spoken to this person before.
deadgerbil · 22-25
@emperorlily that's probably just random trolls. Surely you can report it to the site itself and avoid that site in the future
emperorlily · 22-25, F
@deadgerbil i just left the site. i'm not gonna go on there again. thanks for the help :)

or write up the incident with copies from the site and send it to authorities. It may be nothing it may be something before something dangerous happens.
jennyCook · 22-25, F
Well I hope you contact SW And the police you shouldn't be threatened by anyone ever
emperorlily · 22-25, F
@jennyCook it wasnt on this site but i appreiate the kind words
jennyCook · 22-25, F
@emperorlily well whatever site you shouldn't be abused like that from anyone ever 💋
popmol · 22-25, M
if you know them and they are in your area yeah, if its some rando on the other side of the planet theres nothing they can do

I get death threats constantly I like posting them on reddit
SnowedIn · 46-50, M
If you think they may have any idea of where you are, go to the police.
DownTheStreet · 51-55, M
Any particular reason for the threats ?
MissyChrissy · 18-21, F
Call the police, definitively
You don't know them?
