Send Anonymous SMS


I saw this over on SMS Text News this morning. A new UK company has set up a service that allows people to send anonymous text messages via a website. The service takes advantage of the ability to set the sender ID in free SMS messages in the UK to make it appear the message has come from someone else. To use the service you have to purchase a keycode using your own (or someone else's) mobile phone. The keyword will cost you £1.50, and give you access to the anonymous sending service. The company records the originating mobile number (the one used to buy the keycode), along with all the details of the message being sent.

Sounds like fun ...
