ByDon’t Be a Yahoo—Get a Fake Phone Number for Yahoo Mail!
If you’re concerned about your privacy online, you’re not alone. More than 80% of Americans worry about personal data leaks and being tracked by companies.
How do you protect yourself and keep using services, social media, and your Yahoo email? Acquiring a fake phone number is quickly becoming a necessity for people who want to secure their personal information.
Yahoo has several data breach reports and outdated security, so bypassing phone verification is a good idea.
Check out how DoNotPay can help you get a secure phone number for your Yahoo Mail account.
Why Is Yahoo Requesting My Phone Number?
Yahoo claims it wants to verify you’re not a robot or a spammer and protect yours and other people’s accounts, which is why it asks for your phone number. Yahoo could also request your number in one or more of the following situations:
- You are using a VPN
- It notices a suspicious activity
- You tried to sign in multiple times
- It needs to recover your account
- You logged in using a different device or browser
Yahoo Email Verification Problems
Even if you want to use your real number to complete Yahoo phone verification, you could run into some obstacles.
There is a chance you may enter the wrong number, which means you won't receive a verification code. You may type in your landline number instead of your cell phone by mistake.
The problem doesn't have to be your fault, either. The glitches could also arise on Yahoo's side. The verification link may have expired, or Yahoo sent the code to the wrong number accidentally.
