How to open new gmail account without phone number
Unfortunately, Google requires a phone number to create a new Gmail account. This is a security measure to help prevent spam and abuse. However, there are a few workarounds to create a new Gmail account without a phone number:
Method 1: Use a temporary phone number
You can use a temporary phone number or a virtual phone number service to create a Gmail account. Here's how:
- Sign up for a temporary phone number service like Google Voice, Burner, or TextNow.
- Create a new Gmail account using the temporary phone number.
- Once you've created the account, you can change the phone number associated with the account to a different one or remove it altogether.
Method 2: Use a VPN and a public Wi-Fi network
You can create a new Gmail account using a VPN (Virtual Private Network) and a public Wi-Fi network. Here's how:
- Connect to a public Wi-Fi network.
- Install a VPN app on your device (e.g., ExpressVPN, NordVPN).
- Start the VPN app and connect to a server in a different country.
- Create a new Gmail account using the VPN connection.
- Once you've created the account, you can disconnect from the VPN and use the account as usual.
Method 3: Use a friend's phone number
If you have a friend who is willing to lend you their phone number, you can use it to create a new Gmail account. Here's how:
- Ask your friend if they're willing to lend you their phone number for a short period.
- Create a new Gmail account using your friend's phone number.
- Once you've created the account, you can change the phone number associated with the account to a different one or remove it altogether.
Important notes
- Google may still require you to verify your account using a phone number or other means, even if you use one of these workarounds.
- Using a temporary phone number or a VPN may not be allowed in all countries or regions, so be sure to check the laws and regulations in your area before attempting to create a new Gmail account.
- Creating multiple Gmail accounts without a legitimate reason may be against Google's terms of service and could result in account suspension or termination.
