I would like to create a Google account and would like i out from the forum on how to create one anonymously.
I have tried to create a a Google account with or without a VPN, on fingerprinted device, residential IP, almost any idea on how to not make it private, and it still wants SMS verification. How do people here bypass it create a Google account without all this hassle! Anything I try fails.
Please research this forum for similar posts and discussions. You’ll learn that it’s not possible and even if it is and you get lucky, it’s going to be temporary. There is no real way to do this and have it stick. That really is the simplest answer.
But you don’t have to believe me, you can discover the same yourself with some reading on here.
I have discovered this to be the same. I thought maybe this group would have had their own secret methods for it, but seems not. Thank you for clarifying.
I mean, big tech platforms have systems that can detect fake phone numbers. I’ve tried smspool when signing up for Amazon and my account was instantly banned. Maybe you’ll have better luck as I’ve seen some posts on here who have used smspool successfully (though not for Google specifically). Personally, I used my real number and deleted it from my account. And my phone number was changed since then. We all want the same thing my guy!
Transfer your personal data, perform a factory reset, and insert a temporary SIM card. Create a new account without SMS. Remove the temporary SIM card and insert the permanent one. I did this without SMS.
Oh, so create a Google account on an Android phone during set-up?
For what OP is asking, this won’t be anonymous or even private. Not to mention, Google will at times, depending on where and how you sign in to your account, as for SMS verification on the OG number you made your account with - and with a temp. SIM, you may not have access to it.
You simply cannot make a Google account privately enough or anonymously and have it stick for good.
I don’t believe you can make a Google account “anonymously”, but bypassing SMS would be a big deal. I haven’t been asked for my phone number or SMS verification since my initial account creation.
You must be signed into your account in the app or somewhere else permanently. If this is the case, then you may be able to get away with it. But if you sign in with no Gmail cookies or through different VPN server locations, it will absolutely ask you for verification again and more often. But even then, as long you are signed into your app, you can use the app to authenticate/authorise the new log in attempt elsewhere. So that’s one way to get away with it but is not ideal.
Yeah, this is true. I’m thinking if one sets up 2FA straight after account creation (which was what I did), theoretically, you could bypass SMS and not have Google ask for SMS authentication.
Google is an a**hole. It still won’t stick - speaking from experience. But you can try and one’s mileage may vary.
Yes, I’m not confident the workaround would work, but if for some reason I end up making another Google account, it’s a method I would try.
The phone has a factory reset feature. After doing this, the phone becomes clean, as if you just bought it. Afterwards, you can change the settings to make it more private. After that, I inserted a temporary SIM card just in case, and created a new account. I turned off the phone and swapped the temporary SIM card for the permanent one. Everything is working.
It’s more expensive but can’t you just use an anonymous “physical” (non-VoIP) number? Either by buying a burner phone and pre-paid plan in cash or if that’s not allowed where you live maybe a service like Crypton.sh might work?
(You’d probably want to connect to a VPN server based in the same city as the phone number, preferably using a service less likely to be detected as a VPN.)
The OP was asking to bypass SMS, so they don’t even want to put in a phone number. I did it the first way. Never heard of Cryton.sh though.
Disclaimer, I haven’t tried this yet, but I was also about to suggest the same: use crypton.sh for the first-time SMS activation, and after that enable 2FA (with an authenticator app, or a FIDO2 token or similar) and delete your number from your google account.
this is true, ive tried it.
Anyway, sms is/was never the problem. The problem is the qr code which (once you scan it) you might as well just sign in from your device, because they will link everything you have on it.
Even when you do this, how do you know the qr code that ggle uses doesnt link physical id’s from your device the first time you scan it? linking all subsequent accounts to the same device?
I can’t say anything about the QR code; I didn’t have the goal of anonymity; my task was to clear the device’s memory.
Isn’t it that anonymity equals privacy? Serious question.
It depends how you mean it.
