Linking Gmail to my phone?
ok. I have multiple email addresses for various reasons. Now they all want to link to your phone. I was reading here on SW that Gmail is the most secure. So since my hubby and I are going to be camming I was trying to set up a new account with our fake porn name. I feel like it's just "the man" trying to know everyone's business. Is there a limit to how many emails I can link to my phone? Am I just being paranoid? I really would like to be as untraceable as possible incase someone hacks SM or Google. Help!!

Hi Mare. I have multiple gmail accounts linked to my phone. There is no limit you can add as far as I know. I have my regular e-mail account and my porn name account linked to my phone. No you are not being paranoid at all. I would not use your regular e-mail because you never know. Especially if you let guys send you messages. It's better to be safe then sorry. FYI when you set up your other gmail do not use your real name. I use my fake name as my name on that account as well.
Re: Linking Gmail to my phone?
Wait wait. Don't give gmail your phone number, if that's what ur asking. Keep clicking "skip". But if ur talking abt using gmail from ur smartphone, that's fine. I have about eight e-mail accts all set up on my phone.
Re: Linking Gmail to my phone?
That's the problem. It won't let me skip. I usually just press skip on all my other accounts. But this is a brand new account I'm attempting to make. ( They must be on to me!!!!) LOL:O
Re: Linking Gmail to my phone?
Can you try something fake like.... 555-555-5555 ?
Re: Linking Gmail to my phone?
I tried. It then wanted the code it sent typed in. I'm just trying to leave as little info as possible out there for a hacker to find.
Re: Linking Gmail to my phone?
When I finally got the courage to start camming, Gmail made me also use a real phone number to activate. They wanted to text me or call me with a PIN number to enter in order to finish activating my account. I went and bought a $10 throwaway phone with 100 minutes on it just for this purpose because I didn't want my real number linked in any way. If you're willing to spend the money, you can find one at Walmart or maybe a grocery store (I got mine at Kroger).
Re: Linking Gmail to my phone?
You can solve the "real phone number" issue by getting a pinger app on your smartphone. You'll get a separate free phone number with free texts AND free incoming calls - all you have to do is use it every so often to keep it activated. If I haven't used mine in a while I will just go into my pinger app and text my real number with it and respond. That's enough to keep my number active.
I use my pinger number for things like phone verification, my shopper memberships (walgreens CVS etc) and to give to new guys I might date. I just don't like every damn body having my real phone number.
Also pinger is cool because it works on wifi so you can use it while traveling and you can do free international texts with it to 30+ countries. haha

No, you don't need a phone number. I just set up a new gmail acct right this minute to try to walk you thru it. It did say you may need to verify by phone if you can't type in the captcha thing, but otherwise, it didn't give me any issues.
Re: Linking Gmail to my phone?
Sorry. laptop has been down due to the wind. We did go get a new laptop today. I'm going to try gmail again.
Re: Linking Gmail to my phone?
Yay!! It worked. So sorry, I'm not sure what happened the first time. I'm really trying. It's alot of info. I'm on pg 44 of SM.
Re: Linking Gmail to my phone?
Page 44 while you're streaming? Yowzers. Well, if that's really true then you've got some serious work to do. But keep in mind that guys also sort thru the site, meaning you may be page 44 overall, but page 3 of blondes, etc. Hang in there.
Re: Linking Gmail to my phone?
No. LOl. I am on page 44 of the streamate thread.
