February 2nd, 2007Craigsnumber - Disposable Phone #’s
Like the “10 Minute Disposable Email” email service link I posted , detailing disposable email addresses you can create and dictate when they expire, Craigsnumber is a disposable telephone number service.
And it’s free..
Basically, all you do is go to Craigsnumber, click the link, and you will be instantly assigned a telephone number. This is your ‘disposable’ number.
Enter the length of time, from one hour to one month, you want this number to exist. Then enter your real telephone number in the appropriate box and all phone calls to your assigned number will be forwarded to your real number for the designated length of time.
Want to use a phone number in a newspaper ad, but don’t really want to use your real number? Create a disposable number to publish in the paper (or online), and it will expire at your chosen time.
What about all the web forms that want a telephone number, won’t complete your request without one, and you don’t want to give out your ‘true’ number? Use a Craigsnumber…
Personally, I can think of a dozen different uses for a disposable number.
