Hi, may I have your Vumber?
Online dating (and mobile dating) are great ways to meet someone interesting and make new friends. Unfortunately, as is the case with almost every service, there will always be someone who will try to exploit that service for their own ends. Protecting your privacy has become a must today.
Vumber (Virtual Number) has decided to make it easier for everyone to shield their real mobile phone number by giving everyone a completely different number. Basically, for a small monthly fee of $4.99, subscribers get the freedom to choose any number they wish in an area code, and have all calls made to that number invisibly forwarded to their personal number. Also, when making calls, even though they are made from the personal (mobile phone) number, the recipient sees the "fake" (but working) number through caller ID. Additionally, there are call handling options - for example if some weirdo keeps calling you over and over again, simply setup "ring-no-answer" or "the number you've dialed is no longer in service" voice message. Naturally, all users can change their Vumber any time. The whole process of setting up and using Vumber is quite straight-forward, as you can see here.
The developers of this service had online dating and personals in mind as the primary users, which is why we are posting about Vumber here. Anyway, this sounds like a service to use for protecting your privacy, so if you want that extra security layer, give Vumber a shot.
