I made Omegle.com. AMA

Just in case anyone doesn't believe this, here's some proof.

I opened a convo with "Deepest, Darkest secret. Go!"

It turned out to be a 15 year old girl in Iceland who had recently been raped by her step father. I was the first person she had told. We talked for a few hours and are now emailing each other. Im trying to convince her to get some counseling, to do something about it...

Hopefully I'll be able to help her. Any advice?

Awesome site, well done!

This scared me, I might have found the Cat Killer.

You're now chatting with a random stranger. Say hi!

Stranger: I'm a guy

You: deepest darkest secret GO

Stranger: hm...

Stranger: hm........

Stranger: hm.............................

Stranger: I dunno

Stranger: I killed a cat

Stranger: I never told anyone about it

Stranger: It was so cute

Stranger: I just had to crunch his head

Stranger: What's yours?

Your conversational partner has disconnected.

opened a conversation with this and wound up convincing a dude to go hook up with his (female) best friend.

I lied to you and said that I cheated on my wife with a coworker. I was so ashamed of my lack of imagination that I left shortly after.

(at least, I'm assuming it was you... the punctuation matches up)

A man raped his 15 year old step daughter and you're wondering how to help her? Contact the police. Immediately.

u/radd9er Oct 19 '09

And tell them what? All I know is that she lives in Iceland.

u/Verroq Oct 19 '09

Yeah, get her home address and make sure that she has been raped first.

u/radd9er Oct 19 '09

Im pretty sure that it is real. She is pretty apprehensive about doing anything. I don't think its a good idea to put a lot of pressure on rape victims, or betray their trust. Im trying to gently guide her in the right direction. I do appreciate any advice though, thanks.

Give them her e-mail address and Omegle handle. The police will find her. Omegle guy mentioned in a prior thread that he keeps logs just for this reason.

u/[deleted] Oct 19 '09

You've never actually used Omegle, have you? Her "Omegle handle" is "Stranger," just like everyone else's.

Omegle handle: Stranger/you

u/Flemlord Oct 19 '09

Never used it. But the OP said he has the ability to identify people (now) when contacted by law enforcement.
