Hope you enjoyed it. Use it.

P.S. At the request of those in need, I am posting a couple more services for reception and sending SMS. They provide paid and toll-free numbers, but this is a mere trifle compared to what you are doing all this for.

You can view them by following this link:

Sometimes you urgently need to register on some network. Take, for example, VKontakte. She and many like her ask for their number.

But what if you don't want to provide your number? Or has it already been used for registration (two accounts cannot be registered for one number)? Or maybe everything is so urgent that there is no time to buy another SIM card?

Whatever the circumstances, there is always a way out:

• You can ask friends or neighbors for the number. But they may not always have a free number for VK. And if it turns out, they may lie or ask for money. In addition, if they keep the number, they can easily change the password for your account;
• You can use a free disposable number to simply receive an SMS with a code;
• You can register in the IP telephony system and buy a number from them.

-telephony?

IP telephony is a technology for using regular telephony via the IP protocol. Since Internet traffic is cheaper to use telephone networks, IP telephony is also cheaper. In addition, it is created virtual number phone for free. Although regular numbers are connected for a fee.

In addition, the flow of information is transmitted to digital form and is necessarily compressed to save traffic and not transmit information garbage through channels.

You can use this number both from a computer and from a smartphone. You just need to install the application and you can start writing SMS or calling. There is also stationary devices for IP telephony. Virtual numbers are also connected to them.

Free disposable number for SMS

There are services that allow their users to use a toll-free number to receive an SMS with a code. It seems convenient, but there is one “but”: toll free numbers few.

You go to the service page (for example, tempsms.ru). Usually on home page The numbers are shown immediately. And on the same page the SMS messages received to them are shown. That is, everyone can see your code. This is not the safest option.

The second significant drawback is that you must register before no one takes the number. Numbers may change every day or several times a day. From a budget point of view, this is not bad. From the point of view of anonymity too. Because if a whole bunch of people use one number, it will be difficult to track down any specific one. Especially if you use the number only once and with a proxy.

If you need a one-time account and don't want to spend a penny, this is ideal. But if you need a VK profile on for a long time, this option will not work - if you need to receive another SMS, you will not receive it. Because the number will most likely change already. Especially considering that this SMS may only be needed months later.

Personal virtual number

It will be safer to get a virtual number for your own use. So that only you can read your SMS. Fortunately, creating a virtual phone number for free for 10 minutes is not so difficult and is still anonymous. Just don’t forget to cover the webcam with tape so that the recording of your face doesn’t get to intruders)

There are several services that do this:

• and others.

Everyone, as always, has their own “nuances”. Comtube, for example, allows you to get free and without a subscription fee international number(for the Russian Federation number there is subscription fee). But it cannot be used to register somewhere.

It's not about the policy of the service, but about how the message should look. That is, the SMS that is sent to you must begin with your login on the service. And since VK and other sites create messages automatically, they will never send you SMS required format. Therefore, linking an account through a comtube virtual number is impossible.

How receive sms online through the Internet?

To receive SMS online, there are special sites that provide a special virtual number to which you can receive an SMS message. All sites presented in this review are free and do not require registration. I will tell you about the best services, in my opinion, for receiving SMS online and how to use them correctly.

This article will be constantly updated so as not to lose its relevance. Therefore, if you know other services that provide a virtual number for receiving SMS, post the link in the comments. I mean something sensible and useful for users, and not advertising for some go###o site!

Virtual number for receiving SMS

In what cases may you need a virtual number to receive SMS? There are many different situations. Receiving SMS online can be used primarily to improve anonymity. Using virtual numbers, the user can avoid surveillance on the Internet. Here are examples of using services for receiving SMS messages.

• To receive SMS confirmation online.
• SMS online via the Internet can be used when registering with in social networks, classmates, vkonatka, etc.
• You may also need to receive SMS online when registering mailboxes.

Virtual number without registration

In this chapter, I will talk about online services that do not require registration. These sites can be used when you need to quickly and freely receive SMS online. You can send SMS to such virtual numbers only if it does not contain any sensitive data.

Sensitive data for me is not an activation code or password with a login until the link or name of the site from which the SMS was sent is indicated. This information can be not only in the visible part of the letter, but also in technical headings(RFC headers) letters. We talked about this in the article “How to find out your IP by mail.” The link was above.

Here is an example of how you cannot use a virtual number without registration. I blurred out the password and username of some poor fellow, somehow I don’t want to participate in your hacking.

Many not very advanced users do not take into account what I said above and with such thoughtless actions they lose access to their own and other people’s accounts. Therefore, if you dig around on such sites, you can find a lot of edible things. But don’t forget that using someone else’s data for authorization is also, in a sense, hacking. And as you know, the law provides for a prison term for hacking in any country.

Sellaite

Let's start with the website. This site allows you to receive SMS online for free using one of the numbers available at that time.

The service does not require registration. To receive SMS online, go to the website page and click on the available number.

Please keep in mind that the number provided for SMS may change at any time. Therefore, register only things that will not require future confirmation and linking to the number.

Receive-SMS-Online

The next site is called . Among the possible virtual numbers there are often Russian and Ukrainian ones. Which can be very useful for our audience.

This is another common public virtual number for receive sms, so the same rules apply to it as with the first service.

FreeOnlinePhone

ReceiveSMSOnline

is another service that offers a virtual number for free. At the time of writing, the service provided only British and American virtual numbers, although the description mentions at least two more countries: Canada and Sweden.

Another site that provides a virtual number for receiving SMS for free and without registration.

In addition to a free virtual number, it offers the sale of numbers. The price for one room for one month is $9.

ReceiveFreeSMS

The next service is . Offers virtual number for free. And not a number, but a whole bunch of virtual numbers from different countries.

This best service In my opinion. I will pray for his health, I hope he will live for a long time and bring joy to anonymous people.

Keep in mind. Some large sites identify a virtual number and refuse to send SMS to it. This happens extremely rarely, but it does happen. So if you can’t receive SMS on specific number or any service at all, then don’t be upset, try another one. It is also worth considering the fact that virtual numbers do not last long and tend to change frequently.

That seems to be all. In fact, I wanted to supplement this list with other sites for receiving SMS online via the Internet, which, although they require registration, have richer functionality. But the article dragged on a little, and I decided that it would be continued in another article. So subscribe to public pages on social networks so as not to miss out.

A virtual number is a service for receiving incoming calls to some “fake” phone with their further forwarding to real numbers.

Virtual numbers are used for both business and non-commercial purposes.

If you are not satisfied with this, you can purchase inexpensive subscription- and advertising will be disabled.

The TextNow service and its numbers can be used to register on websites, make calls, exchange multimedia and test messages, and receive voicemail and call forwarding.

To start using the service, register on the TextNow website or install the application and create an account in it. However, not all so simple.

Attempts to register on TextNow from IP addresses of CIS countries usually end in failure:

To get around this limitation, knowledgeable people advise to use .

After completing the registration, you will automatically receive the contact you need. Incoming SMS messages are available in the Conversionals section.

Countrycode.org

Countrycode.org is the last IP-telephony service in our review, which has in its database great amount contacts in all countries of the world.

Those who live an active life online notice that sites that vary in their subject matter and purpose often request a phone number for registration, newsletters, sending order confirmation, etc. But what to do if you don’t have a mobile phone at hand, there are communication problems, you want should you create a second account or simply don’t want the site to bother you with periodic SMS messages? There is a way out - and this temporary number phone. We will talk about what features and advantages it has, as well as where it can be obtained, in this material.

What is a temporary phone and how is it useful?

A temporary or virtual phone number is a service for receiving incoming SMS messages (and sometimes voice calls) to a “fake” phone number, from where this information is forwarded to the real recipient numbers. For non-commercial purposes, a wide range of resources provide a temporary phone for free, but if you get it to do business, you will have to pay for the service.

What are virtual numbers most often used for? Let's look at the most common cases:

• registering a second profile on social networks;
• confirmation of registration on some thematic sites;
• indicating the phone number for the promotion (so that the addressee does not bother you with annoying mailings in the future);
• when registering a mailbox;
• to receive instant confirmation when ordering in online markets;
• to improve anonymity and eliminate the possibility of surveillance by Internet fraudsters.

But be careful - a service that provides a temporary phone number for receiving SMS should not be trusted with personal data either. If you should receive a code, login or password in a message, then the message should not contain information about the sending site. Otherwise, after registration, you urgently need to change the login-password pair.

Along with a temporary phone number for SMS, a number of services provide one-time mailboxes. By sending email in this way, you are guaranteed to hide from the recipient your IP, location and other information that can be used against you.

With this, we’ll complete the introductory part and move on to the practical part - we’ll look at a number of reliable services where you can get a temporary phone for free.

Twilio

Enough popular service, concentrating on providing IP telephony services. Most of its offers are paid, but to get a temporary phone number for SMS, you just need to register a trial account. This is done simply:

1. On the main page of the site, click on the "Sign Up" button.
2. Next you need to enter information about yourself, address Email, come up with a password for your account, register your real phone number.

5. Don't forget to indicate in "Capabilities" what you need the number for - to receive SMS, since not all provided contacts support this function by default.

TextNow

The main advantage of this resource is that it allows you to get a permanent phone number, not a temporary one, for free. And also this is not only an online service, but also an application for popular smartphone platforms. Your only usage fee here is viewing ads.

Creating an account with TextNow couldn't be easier. But, as practice shows, the service stubbornly refuses to register those living in the CIS. It’s not difficult to “deceive” him - you need to use a proxy server with a US IP.

You can find all the messages that will be sent to you to the number provided by the service in the “Conversionals” tab.

Countrycode.org

Not a bad service that provides a ten-day period free use acquired temporary phone. But at the same time, there is a limit of $4 - that’s how much you can spend on communication at the expense of Countrycode.org during this time.

Sellaite

The service differs in that there is no need to go through a tedious registration procedure - you simply click on a free number and it becomes yours. But we warn you that this method is only good for receiving an instant confirmation code. There is no need to link any account to it - the temporary phone on Sellaite will be transferred to another user.

Receive SMS Online

And one more useful service, which provides virtual numbers absolutely free of charge and without registration. Users appreciate it because it is easy to find Russian or Ukrainian in its extensive database mobile number phone.

ReceiveFreeSMS

This site is loved by users because from its database you can select the phone number of the country you need, including Russia. The user can only stop at one of them, click on it and inform the addressee. The received message will be displayed on the open page of the site. All numbers are online, so SMS messages are sent to them guaranteed and without delay.

A temporary phone number is a very useful service in modern reality, when registration on the lion's share of sites requires confirmation via mobile phone, and online stores send codes for purchases to phone numbers. This service will also help those who are afraid of Internet scammers, who do not want to “reveal” their personal data to the site administration, and users who need to create a second and subsequent pages on popular social networks.
