So you want to send someone a text, but you don’t want them to know it’s you, eh? Maybe you just want to have a little fun with a friend or you may have other reasons. Whatever the case, it’s pretty simple to do. Just follow the instructions below and you’ll be leaving confused looks on people’s faces in no time.
How To Email A Text Message
First, you have to know their phone number and mobile carrier (AT&T, Verizon, etc.). Armed with a phone number and the list below, you should be able to easily figure out the email address to send a text message to your victim’s phone.
T-Mobile: phonenumber@tmomail.net
Virgin Mobile: phonenumber@vmobl.com
Cingular: phonenumber@cingularme.com
Sprint: phonenumber@messaging.sprintpcs.com
Verizon: phonenumber@vtext.com
Nextel: phonenumber@messaging.nextel.com
US Cellular: phonenumber@email.uscc.net
SunCom: phonenumber@tms.suncom.com
Powertel: phonenumber@ptel.net
AT&T: phonenumber@txt.att.net
Alltel: phonenumber@message.alltel.com
Metro PCS: phonenumber@MyMetroPcs.com
where phonenumber = your 10 digit phone number
(Thanks to tech-recipes.com for the list)
Get A Fake Email Account
The easiest way to do this is to head over to Gmail and create a free account. You want this free account because you’re only going to use it for this and you want to set up the name and address to be whatever you want.
The screen shot above shows my new account as B Obama with an email address of prez-b-obama@gmail.com, but I eventually went with President Obama and notreallyobama@gmail.com. Be creative.
Send A Text Message VIA Email
Now here’s the really easy part. Just compose an email from your new Gmail account. Send it to the address from the first step above. You might even leave the subject blank to make it look more like a text. The result might look like it did on my iPhone in the first image in this post, but be aware that some phones/carriers will display the email address, too, like my Verizon DROID Incredible below:
You may also note that I tried to include an image on that one. My iPhone didn’t show the image or even indicate that there was one. The Verizon phone removed the image (and said as much) as seen above. I’ve had mixed results on other carriers. If you’re unsure, just do a test with another friend who’s on the same carrier.
With one more relatively simple step, you can actually spoof the email address as well. All this means is that you’ll make the email look like it’s coming from a more convincing address. In the past, this used to require some technical savvy and access to a server that would let you do it. Now, it’s as simple as downloading a free email spoofer and installing it. For me, this took about two minutes. Take a look at the image below compared to the one above. The one below shows a text that, to most people, looks like it came right from the White House. Of course, with the email spoofer, you don’t even need the Gmail account, but I like to use both.
Share Your Results
I’m interested in what you’ll all be sending to your friends/co-workers/family with this. Let us know, below, about the fun you had and any reactions you got. And remember… This is meant to be for fun with a couple friends. Ultimately, stuff like this can get tracked back you you if you do something illegal with it. You’ve been warned.




That is too cool! I did not realize that you could do this. Thanks for sharing!!!
That is really interesting, I can’t wait to prank a few friend this should be fun. Great way to start the afternoon with a little mischief.
Tracy and cheap textbooks: Glad you like the post. let me know what pranks you pull with it.
I’ve been doing this for a long time on my network, which was recently acquired by AT&T. It’s also a really good way to send yourself a txt for important emails. Just set up a forward in your filters. I use it for server-down alerts in case I’m not watching my email.
.-= jtGraphic: James Thompson´s last blog ..Google Image Swirl Make Finding the Perfect Image Easier =-.
jtGraphic: Yeah. I do the same. We have an asterisk phone system that emails my work email with a copy of my voice mail, which I auto-forward to my phone. I also use this method to send notifications from server monitoring scripts to my phone. Very convenient
I am already sending my wife message from George Bush :) Thanks
I wonder if I can do all of that given that I live in New Zealand?

I’m trying to send a picture message anonymously, I don’t want him to get my new number, but I wanna screw with him, bc I came upon a very “interesting” photo… how do I do that?
chey: Just follow the instructions in this post. Make sure to send a test to another phone, first. Ideally, you’ll send the test to the same type of phone he has on the same network as his. So if he has an Android phone on Verizon, find someone else who does, too and send a test to them first. Various phones and networks respond in various ways.
You can also just make an email address for pranking and send texts via email. The only contact the person will have is this new email address, which is actually better because they can respond to you but still have no idea who it is.
Can they find you using an IP address? I know that’s how some teens have found out who it was texting them. Thxs
I tried sending a message to an friend with verizon, the message keeps getting cut off. I fgured it would break it up in several text but it didnt. I justy sent the first group of words thats it.
How do I get the whole message to
Jacque: It depends on how you send the email. Generally, text messages don’t display all the email headers like you can display in Outlook, so you’d have a hard time tracking someone that way. Really, though, this is best used for messing with friends, not anything you’d have to be tracked down for.
Bill: How big is the message?
So did Chase tell you he came to my house yesterday and spent the whole day with me & the baby?? I saw you were calling him all day so I figured you did know where he was so i just thought i’d tell you everything we had sex and he lefted his i.d here and when he came back to get it this morning we fucked again. He told me that yall to werent together that yall just leave together for now until he can get his own place. He also told me he wanted his family back and thats why he has been coming by every weekend to spend time with us. I know Chase and i know he is a cheating lying asshole but i just also wanted to let you know he is cheating on you and always will please just be careful with yourself.
Sometimes I feel like sending an anonymous email in order to express myself to a person that I am not fond of. But I did not do it, the reason behind this is because i don’t want someone sending me anonymous emails. What goes around, comes around .
Hi Joe! Does this technique works even today? This post is almost 2 years ago and I hope it still works. I will send a text message to my son to prank him. Thanks for the future replies.
That is pretty cool, I didn’t know you could do that.
Jesus Christ, who let you breed in the first place? You have the audacity to tell someone the man they probably love is cheating…..with you? You are clearly a dumb and ridiculous b*tch who has nothing better to do than suck on your man while his dumbass prodigy sucks on you. What a load…
Â
Really? So why were you with him in the first place? And what possessed you to give him an option to breed? YOU are the reason women’s rights and access to birth control are being challenged- you can’t manage to control or respect yourself enough to kick this “lying cheating asshole ” to the curb before he knocks you up with a child that he will likely NEVER take responsibility for, since by living with another woman he’s clearly telling the both of you just how much you really mean. Grow a spine and wield your power- for you AND your child.
txtuas.com has completley 100% anonymous my friend received a text from mick jaguar no number, email or name only what you choose top anonymous texting website at the min
mms sending is very simple but this is feature of hand set. your explaination in step by step is very nice.
This has been fun to mess with , i Rick Rolled a couple people with it.
But sometime these kind of text msg will create spam problems.
Check if the other person has received your text message. You can use your iphone app to check if the other person received your message.
I really like your way of expressing the opinions and sharing the information. It is good to move as chance bring new things in life, paves the way for advancement, etc. But it is well known to everyone that moving to new location with bulk of goods is not an easy task to move or shift from one place to other place because I have experienced about that and I face the problem like that.
would this work if someone blocked u?
I’ve started using email or third party internet sites to send text messages and it works really well. Unless you identify yourself no one knows who it came from.
This worked well for me. Comes in handy when I am trying to contact people at work.
