Can you recommend me some anonymous phone number services to use when creating account that requiring phone number verification?
smspool.net works great for me. Tried with GMail, Apple ID, and ChatGPT.
If they’re one-time use, how does that work with accounts that require that number to stay attached to your account and use it as two-factor authentication?
There’s a rent numbers tab on the side menu. You can rent numbers there.
There’s this “resend” button on the site I guess but I don’t know, I’ve never tried. I usually just use a number for a one time verification.you can rent numbers as well for a period of time, iirc
I think the only option going with VoIP: I just made a quick search for VoIP services that accept XMR and found this: https://cryptwerk.com/companies/voip/xmr/
I don’t know any of these services so DYOR but I think you should be able to find something pretty solid (depending on your threat model of course). Overall I don’t know if going non KYC is even possible. However if you should find a way would you mind sharing your experience with us?
UK phone numbers only
Mozilla Relay is phone number + mail protection, although it is worth almost $50 the annual subscription.
Mysudo seems like what you are looking for. I have not tried it because it’s not available in my country yet.
user is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported.
Haha! Good one
I’ve heard this recommended by Michael Bazzell of Intel Techniques, whose job it is to make people untraceable (from stalkers and the like)
Seems like a sketchy website if you ask me.
If in the states, fake info plus a prepaid carrier should work, right? Havent brought a sim in a bit but you should be able to just buy one in a drugstore with cash or has that changed
Edit: should go without saying but I would also opt for a carrier that offers totp as a 2fa method
In A LOT of places this is not legal. At least where I live, you can get a “gray” sim registered to another person, but idk how much you can rely on one. And you have to search around for them.
Edit: also knew a guy who was using jmp.chat for a number.
In a lot of places, a prepaid is just something you can buy, cash, in a shop. No papers please.
Yeah, but many European countries have moved to require registration of prepaid cards “to stop criminals” or something like that. So you can still usually buy them with cash and whatever, but you won’t be able to activate or use it until you confirm your identity.
At least we have the illegal ones registered to random people/bought in bulk for some companies) But you have to search for places that sell these.
eBay.
there are people on Monero Market who will do it for you. SMS pool and Text Verified are also viable.
Does the number have to accept an SMS for verification, or can it be, say, a phone call?
TracFone can be bought with cash and I think you can fudge your details when creating an account too. It’s among the steeper options, coming in at ~$80/year, but it’s about as close to a real phone number as you can get.
