If your question is “does Skype notify you if someone take a picture of you” then the answer may be given to you in affirmative, “yes.” But let us examine, is that true?

But it is not easy for one to observe if someone is snapping one’s images and or recording the videos from Skype, one should be aware of a variety of scams that may use footage and images captured without your knowledge through Skype, to blackmail you later!

So, keep it in your notes, that there are multiple ways and software available to take a picture of you via Skype without letting you notify, meanwhile, you don’t have any tool to inspect if anyone inspecting you or not, so in this case, you must keep following things in account.

• Remember that, anything you’re doing using internet can be recorded, especially when you are using Skype

• Never have video conversation with one you don’t know (or trust) nor share snaps and video recordings i.e. never use your webcam to them

• Don’t ever reveal your very personal information on internet using Skype (especially with strangers)

These are some of the security measures one must take while using Skype, or conversation to anyone online through any social media mean or websites. Always be aware that this type of scam is blackmail and it is illegal. For more details, keep in touch with us.
