Phone verification - Facebook, Google, Instagram, etc.

If you could provide private vs. shared numbers (2-3 times, or maybe once across many platforms). that would be pretty awesome.

US numbers are good, but the issue with them is its hard to get physical numbers for a good price, for sites that VoIP doesnt work. Thats why foreign numbers are available much more in quantity.

With a little research done already, I have the knowledge to get the sms verification message into a database. From there it's pretty simple to code a website that could do both,

1. Provide a private mobile number for only 1 persons use
2. Provide a selection of numbers for anyone to use at random, but still only use the number to verify a website 2 times.

I have the idea, I have the ability to code the platform,

The question is "do I do it" and make the investment of around $600

Up to you. I'd make sure to know exactly which services my numbers work for. Also keep in mind you'd need to develop an api and everything. Definitely something that sounds more like a JV opportunity tbh, it's a lot for one. I wouldn't mind talking, inbox me your skype!

SMSPVA uses russian physical sim cards. It works on almost everything. I use philippine physical sim cards as well and works on everything like a charm.

Forgive my ignorance, I probably don't know what I'm talking about.

Few years ago, I thought of something similar. Buying number in bulk from something like twilio. Mass account creation, mass verification. Then sell the accounts (FB, google etc)

1k numbers probably half a buck each (US numbers)

But then I found bhw, and found the price of per PVA FB account here ... lol I was such a noob (I still am)

So, can someone please explain what the op is trying to do here? (keeping in mind how cheap the rate of pva fb accounts each).

Why would you want a phone verification service, if you can just buy pva accounts in bulk?

Ignore me if my query is too dumb.

I'm still fairly new at this myself, so there's no such thing a a stupid question if you don't know the answer.

I think it's all about control of the account creation process. If you buy accounts your not always 100 % sure that they will last. But if you have your own system of creating accounts, then you will probably have a tried and tested system of creation and these will look more natural.

Ive been reading all the comments and taking onboard everything thats been said in this thread and come to the conclusion:

Ill build a platform that users can use for FREE and provide 1 or 2 public phone numbers that you can receive texts on (but everyone else can see all the texts messages)
Depending on interest in the project will depend on how much I scale it. Ive got a few ideas about how to monetize it in the future. but for the moment a small investment will be made and Ill enjoy coding the platform.

Thanks for all your comments and feedback, your steered me in the least risky way to do this.
