In today’s digital world, your phone number is more than just a contact method, it’s a gateway to your identity. But using your real number for online registrations can come with hidden risks that most users don’t realize. Here’s why you should think twice and how VSim can help protect you.
Phone numbers have become central to how we access apps, create accounts, and verify our identities. But with this convenience comes vulnerability. Every time you use your real number to register for a service, you're giving third parties a direct line to your private life.
Once a platform has your number, it can be stored, sold, shared, or leaked. Even reputable companies can suffer data breaches, and your number can end up in the hands of spammers, scammers, or worse.
Sharing your real number opens the floodgates to annoying spam calls and texts. Once you're on a marketing list, it’s hard to get off.
Many websites lack robust security. If their databases are hacked, your number can be exposed along with other personal info.
Cybercriminals can hijack your phone number by convincing your carrier to transfer it to a new SIM. With access to your number, they can reset passwords and gain entry to your accounts.
Your number can be reverse-searched to find your name, location, or even family members. Bad actors can use this to impersonate you or manipulate you psychologically.
