A few common-sense tips for using an online travel community:
- Keep personal details private: phone number, address, passport, booking references and your exact live location.
- Never send money, gift cards or crypto to someone you met online, and be wary of anyone who asks.
- Volo is not a dating site. Report anyone who sends romantic or unwanted messages, and use Block on their profile.
- Treat member tips as personal opinion. Check official sources for visas, entry rules, health and safety, such as Smartraveller (Australia), GOV.UK foreign travel advice or travel.state.gov (USA).
- If you choose to meet anyone you met online, meet in a busy public place and tell someone you trust where you’ll be.
- In an emergency, contact local emergency services.
