I saw someone accuse NGL of revealing user identity despite anonymity, how can I verify NGL really hides who asks?

The first thing you should look at is NGL's own policy. It says it doesn't keep senders' names or social handles, so it can't reveal them.

However, if you pay for "hints," it may show you general IP/user-agent information, like the device or general location. Take a picture of this page after reading it for your own notes.

Next, learn about the past: regulators made changes after NGL tricked users with "hints" and automatically generated messages.

This doesn't show that identities are being leaked, but it does raise questions about trust. Read reliable news stories about the FTC case and older TechCrunch stories.

Use a VPN to send messages to your link from different devices, networks, and countries. Then, compare what the paid tips show. Real personality should never show up; only vague traits should.

If someone says they can reveal the sender's identity, that should be taken as a red flag or a scam. Don't use third-party "reveal" tools; instead, report abuse within the app.

If you think you can propose better solutions to the question presented, we encourage you to offer your opinions or submit your complaints free of charge.
