Introduction To Friends ListBenefits & Features:
Friends can send private messages, send instant photo attachments and chat with each other - live! Friends can also participate in video web cam chat or VOIP audio calls as well, which is an excellent and safe way to see and/or talk with someone anonymously before meeting them in person for dating! All LetsHangOut.com chat features are completely free and you do not need to give away your phone number anymore in order to talk with someone that you may not know very well yet. All communication can be done directly through your username and inside the website!
Instructions, Tools & Management:
Use the cog wheel on the right-hand friends menu to view your main options. Options include Managing your friends list or controlling your main chat status. Setting your status to "Offline" will turn off your chat and hide your online chatting status. You can turn it back to "Online" again at any time or set it to "Away". On the Friends List Management screen, you can accept/decline new friend requests or remove friends from your Friends List.
In addition, when you click on a friend on the right-hand friends menu, you have the option to view their profile, initiate chat or hide your online status from them (turn off chat for a specific user).
When you click the "Chat Now" link for a friend, a popup chat box appears. You can send a message to them and they will receive it immediately. Also from the chat box, there are a few other features. Clicking the button will setup live, streaming video chat using your web cam and microphone, the button will setup a VOIP audio-only call using your microphone, and the button will allow you to select a photo on your device and instantly send it to your friend.

I personally have seen negative developments in every other platform, and I am more interested in giving this a shot.
Mingle2 was promising, but if you'll see my profile, you'll see the kind of people they protect. I had been there less than a day posting in forums having a great conversation, and this man sent me harassing messages and then stole my profile images and began posting about me. I reported and blocked and nothing was done.
EVERYTHING I posted was deleted and I was banned. My reviews vanished as well.
Mingle2 was the best I had found (and I was still brand new)... So be cautious. There are many scammers, traffickers, and jerks thriving on these platforms.
I know what you mean about scammers. There's alot of them on free date sites. I have one chatting with me right now. I'm just playing along, out of boredom mainly, until she gets around to asking me to send her money. They're pretty easy to spot.
