How to send an anonymous SMS?: Methods and best web pages to achieve it
Have you ever wanted send a text message without revealing your identity? Maybe you wanted to play a prank on someone, send an anonymous statement to a crush, or maybe you wanted to share sensitive information with someone without revealing your identity. There are a wide variety of situations in which knowing how to send an anonymous sms it can be of great use.
And you may think that it is complicated or expensive, but the truth is that a lot of websites allow you to send these anonymous messages relatively easily and without charging you a penny (at least if you use them sparingly). So in this article we will teach you what are the best methods, tools and steps you should know to send anonymous SMS without revealing your identity.
Globfone: How to send an anonymous SMS for free
Globfone: A very complete online tool to send anonymous SMS over the Internet.
As we advance in the introduction, in this guide you will find the best websites that you can use to send an anonymous SMS (below you will see a list with all these options). However, we wanted to put Globphone up here, aside from said list, for good reason: this is literally the best tool to send anonymous SMS and we wanted to explain how to use it.
Globfone has a lot of options, how to share videos and files through its website, make calls, and the ones that concern us in this article, send SMS. Sending SMS messages online and completely anonymously with Globfone is very easy, just follow these steps:
- Enter to globfone.com/send-text.
- Enter your name in the form on the right side of the screen that says "Free text online«. Then click Next.
- Choose the country to whom you want to send the message.
- Enter the recipient's phone number after the phone code. Then Next.
- Write the anonymous message you want to send and press Next.
After completing these steps you will have to wait a few seconds for the sending of your message to complete. Once completed you will see the message «The message was successfully sent» (the message was sent successfully). In theory, that means the message was received by the other person, but the page can't always tell exactly if the message was received.
Another issue that you should take into account is that this and other pages do not work to send SMS to phone numbers in certain countries. Therefore, in case this website does not work for you, we recommend you try the methods that we will mention later in this post.
Temporary phone numbers
Textport: Get a virtual phone number for a month for $6,00
Another method is temporary phone numbers, as the name implies, it would be a virtual phone number with a limited time of use. You can usually generate them with an app, and they have the advantage of being harder to track. For this reason, they are a very popular way to hide one's identity when sending an anonymous message.
Now, the tool that we most recommend for send an anonymous SMS with a temporary phone number es Text Port. It's a website with a ton of features, from generating virtual phone numbers, to sending mass messages and via email.
To use TextPort, however, you need to register as a user of its services. Now, keep in mind that this tool it's not free. Each anonymous SMS message sent costs you only $0,015 and a virtual number to use for a month costs $6,00.
Other websites to send anonymous SMS
We have already told you about Globfone, one of the most complete services for sending anonymous SMS, but other websites that are also quite good and that we think are worth trying are:
SeaSms.com
Another quite popular page to send anonymous SMS is SeaSms.com. It is a completely free tool with which you can send messages to numbers anywhere in the world. You can use the contacts option to add frequent numbers. In this way, the web allows you send the same message to multiple phone numbers simultaneously.
SeaSms is more focused on companies; being useful for send mass messages with your brand name in the sender field. The only 2 problems it could have is that it asks you for various identification information when sending the message, so perhaps it is not the most anonymous tool on the list. Also, the length of messages is limited to a maximum of 160 characters.
TxtEmNow.com
txtemnow.com It is relatively simple, although I quite like the design of its web page. With this tool you can send messages maximum 300 characters internationally to the numbers of the main telephone providers in the United States and Europe. It allows you to send messages without requesting information from the sender, making it a more anonymous and private option.
On their own website they already explain very well how you should send your anonymous SMS message: first, enter the number to which you want to send the message (don't forget to put the phone code as well). Then, select where this number is from: of the United States o International? Finally, write your message and select Continue to send the text.
Conclusion
What do you think now about this whole process of sending anonymous SMS for free? Was it easier than you thought it would be? As we said at the beginning of the article, it may seem that sending anonymous SMS is impossible or very expensive, but with all the tools available on the Internet today (from websites to apps to get temporary phone numbers) definitely isn't.
Now, these tools are really powerful when it comes to maintaining the anonymity of their users. However, it does not mean that they should be used without any kind of responsibility. Be sure to take advantage of them to protect your own privacy, and not to carry out activities that may be against the law, since intelligence agencies always manage to find cybercriminals.
