Are virtual numbers safe for one-time verifications?-Forum-Culture Informatique

Hello friend! Yeah, I’ve been in the same boat — constantly worried about spam texts or privacy breaches. I started using a virtual number through receive-sms.io a couple of months ago, and it’s been surprisingly smooth. The site offers free public numbers you can use to receive SMS instantly. It worked for most sign-ups like forums, discount apps, and trial accounts. Just don’t use it for super important logins like banking. It’s a great way to keep your real number private without missing out on access.

Yeah, I’ve used virtual numbers mainly through apps like Hushed or Burner. They’re handy when you don’t want to give out your real number — especially when testing random platforms or games. Some sites will reject them, but they usually work for most signups. Kind of like Geometry Dash Lite — it’s a stripped-down version that still gets the job done when you just want a quick run without the full commitment. Same vibe here: quick, easy, but maybe not for every situation.
