I created a dumby facebook account to get ahold of some friends who dont use email. After about a week facebook gave me an ultimatum, give them my phone number or upload a color picture of my drivers license. I decided to say good bye to facebook.
- pak 15y agoLuckily, throwaway phone numbers are as easy to get as throwaway email accounts these days: http://voice.google.com http://voice.google.com
- uxp 15y agoThis won't work in this case, since the verification code is emailed to the number as an SMS message (11235551234@mycarrier.net), which Google Voice numbers do not support.
- dcotton 15y agoIt will work, Facebook accepted my landline number just fine. There is no need to have an SMS message sent.
- pbhjpbhj 15y agoWhat you did is expressly against the terms of use of Facebook. It's for real people, real businesses, etc.. They were just trying to verify you're a real person, possibly your account was reported by someone as being fake.
- cbs 15y ago>What you did is expressly against the terms of use of Facebook. Yeah, I think we all know that. It doesn't mean that we're going to agree with them. Yes they were in "the right" by booting him, but that doesn't make it any less of a shitty policy. >It's for real people, real businesses, etc.. Yep, wouldn't want to add any noise to that delicious advertiser signal!
