Send a Fake Text Message! How to use it, and when?

Send a fake text!

A few years ago (or perhaps a decade ago), sending texts was an every day, all-day occurrence for most of us. However, with our collective increase in smartphone usage, the amount of texts we send on a weekly basis decreases more and more.

It’s just easier to use WhatsApp and other handy chat apps, simply because we like sending pictures and videos simultaneously. But there’s one thing where ‘traditional’ texting shines: anonymity!

When would you send fake messages? There are countless reasons, of course, and in this article, we’ll share the most common ones.

Valentine’s Day text

Never mind roses and a chocolate cake with initials. By sending an anonymous text, you’ll make your secret (or not so secret) lover’s heart melt. Send a romantic poem or your favourite song text. Perhaps even a daring invitation for a blind date.

You never know what might come of it! Valentine’s day isn’t just reserved for romantic lovers. You can just as easily surprise your friends and family with a text as well, just because you care about them.

April Fools’ Day prank

Sending a fake text is the best way to prank your friends, family, and colleagues. What better moment than April Fools' Day?

Did your best friend pass her driver’s exam? Send a text that states a mistake was made and that she has to try again. Is your sister a gossip queen? Send her an anonymous text saying that a computer virus is sent to all her contacts, and watch her panic!

A fake text message from Santa

The warmest month of the year and the perfect time to surprise loved ones and little ones with a text from their favourite hero: Santa!

But not only children will be amused by a secret Santa text; adults will likewise enjoy such a gesture immensely. For example, a playful reminder meant for that one friend who is never on time with his wishlist. Or a thoughtful message for your parents who have been preparing for Christmas eve the entire month.

Frequently asked questions about fake text messages

Can you send a fake text and disguise your number showing?

Yes, technically, it is possible to send a fake text and disguise your number. The safest way to do this is using an anonymous text message service like this website. This is the best option if you want to disguise your number showing when sending a text message. Alternatives are difficult to find, as phone numbers usually do show a number when sending a text.

When using your phone, it is actually much easier to hide your caller ID compared to disguising your number when sending a text message. So the only option for 100% anonymity combined with texting is our anonymous messaging service.

How to text someone from a different phone number?

There are a few options to text someone from a different phone number.

  1. Spoof service: this type of service sends a text message to the number chosen by you and shows any number as the sender.
  2. Third-party apps: these apps make it possible to send anonymous text messages and hide your phone number or show a random, fictional sender.
  3. Anonymous text services: text services like us also make this possible, however, you being anonymous is 100% guaranteed, and the costs are only £1.99.

How can I send a text message without my number showing?

Hiding your number when sending a text message is not as easy as it may sound. The thing is that when you use your own phone, anonymous text messaging is never guaranteed, whatever trick you are trying to pull, for example using a second phone or texting via an external app.

If you really want to be guaranteed that you can hide your number from the recipient, the completely safe option is our anonymous text.
