How to Send Anonymous Messages

Communicating in today's increasingly virtual community has two sides: interesting and easily boring. Although most people prefer anonymity, it is not easy to maintain it. There are many different ways to text anonymously. Let's read the article below to discover how to send anonymous messages.

By email account

Create a new email account. You probably don't want to use a personal account because the recipient will be able to see your personal information (name, email address, etc.). Instead, choose a new, free email service provider (Google, Yahoo, etc.) to set up an account that doesn't contain any personal information at all.

Get the recipient's phone number. Find and confirm the phone number of the person you want to text.

Even if you send an email, you still need the recipient's phone number as part of their email address.

Find out the recipient's carrier. The person you want to message will use a specific carrier, such as in the US AT&T, T-Mobile, Verizon Wireless, Sprint, Metro PCS, etc. All of these carriers allow texting to the recipient's phone via email. To determine the target's carrier, you can ask them directly or look up on the following pages:

Combine phone number with corresponding carrier email. In other words, you need to compose an email sent to the recipient's phone, not the email account. Just fill in the 10-digit phone number (no hyphens or spaces) and choose one of the following email templates with your specific US carrier:

AT&T: SMS: 10sodienthoai@txt.att.net, MMS: 10sodienthoai@mms.att.net

T-Mobile: SMS/MMS: 10sodienthoai@tmomail.net

Verizon: SMS: 10sodienthoai@vtext.com, MMS: 10sodienthoai@vzwpix.com

Sprint: SMS: 10sodienthoai@messaging.sprintpcs.com, MMS: 10sodienthoai@pm.sprint.com

Metro PCS: SMS/MMS: 10sodienthoai@mymetropcs.com

Alltel: 10sodienthoai@message.alltel.com

Virgin Mobile: 10sodienthoai@vmobl.com

Compose a new email using the account you just created. After gathering the necessary information about the person you're texting, log in to your new email account and compose the message. Enter the recipient's phone number and the corresponding carrier's email address form in the list above in the address line. Then, press Send.

To make the email look like a text message to the recipient, you should leave the Subject line blank.

The above contact will receive an anonymous message.

Read the terms of the website you choose. The basic rules generally prohibit you from using the service for fraud, harassment or other crimes. Additional terms may relate to service fees, frequency of use, privacy, etc.

Some free texting services are known to have actually stopped working due to abuse. You should verify if this service is still active and remember to pay attention to the Terms of Service on the website.

Be careful because these sites can trace you based on your IP address. In other words, if you use their services to do something illegal or sneaky, you will be arrested.

Enter fake sender information if required. Some services require you to enter a phone number, but not always. If you want to use a fake number, you should do so convincingly by adding a random phone number after the area code. You can also choose a phone number that you can tell right away doesn't exist, such as 555-555-5555.

Services that specialize in anonymous texting usually do not require you to enter a phone number. Instead, the service will create a fake number to send messages.
