Imagine a situation when you're selling your cupboard on Craigslist, and the buyer asks for a phone number to negotiate the deal. Or when you see a giveaway that requires a phone number for sending a confirmation code. All these scenarios require users to provide their personal phone numbers.
But what if the buyer from Craigslist turns out to be a conman, and after typing your phone number on the web page of the giveaway, you'll be receiving spam messages?
What If your perfect match from Tinder appears to be a stalker, and now he's got your personal phone number?
In such cases, you'd better use a second phone number. Home delivery service might require a number as well.
So-called burners can be a safer option to choose from since they protect your privacy. Nowadays — at the time of pandemic — one just cannot do without a burner phone number. Freelance English teachers working from home would probably use a second phone number rather than their personal one for work.
Free disposable phone numbers and their features
SMS online providers allow their users to register on online services, forums, mobile apps, or any other websites using free or paid virtual phone numbers. Virtual phone providers use real SIM cards and display the messages via their websites. If you need privacy, use disposable numbers, which are available from different countries and regions.
When the internet is private
You've got your reasons not to hand out your number to anyone. If you like an idea of a burner phone, you could also like a "burner" SMS online service, for it's even more helpful because it doesn't require a physical phone in place. You can use one virtual phone number for work and leave your phone number for your personal life. And your third virtual number might be used for shopping, dating, signing up on online forums and chat rooms.
