> Can you fake a mobile number for SMS?
Bookmark topic
One of the girls I work with is claiming I've sent text messages to her that I haven't! Is it possible to fake the number that a text message comes from?
Ive spoken to Orange who have said that on a digital network it is impossible (along with phone cloning)
As far as I know there is NO way that anyone could have got hold of my phone to send them.
I need to be certain before calling her a liar...
Any help would B GREATLY appreciated...

Yes its possible. In the early days when there were a lot of free sms sites there were sites where you could enter a number as sender. This could be any number.

Yes,it is possible to send sms with ur number but from the internet.here in my country,my mobile prov has a sms site,where i register with my number and when i send sms appears my own number without any extra info sayin its from the net.maybe she got this kind of account with ur number then sent sms.

But faking the number from a phone is virtually impossible as all the work and traffic is done in servers...no way in my op.if it helps,i can tell u u can hide a number when sending sms.

Cheers but I don't need to 'hide' a number...
Could NE1 give me an example of a site that I could show her to prove it isn't me?
It might be that someone else is trying to cause trouble, in which case I ain't gonna accuse her of lying...

Has she shown you the text message that apparently has your number attached to it?

As the other guy said, 'in the old days' it was possible.THESE DAYS they send u the temporary password on ur mobile so no prob should arise.BUT..i know a site that requires mail only: www.1rstwap.com.

She hasn't shown me the text messages and I am 'allmost' certain that she's making it all up... I don't think NE1 else has seen them either...
That site, by the way, DOES require that you have the mobile number that you enter... It sends a Pass code to the phone number...
I was hoping that I could send a txt to her from her own number but am getting more and more certain that she is making it all up...
She gave a number to my boss that she said was mine and when he rang it someone answered who WASNT me... Is that possible if it was my number?

@701:
That's what I've been trying for a long time: hiding my number when sending a SMS...
How do I go about that?
