## Description

VSim provides virtual phone numbers to receive online SMS verification without exposing your real number. It emphasizes privacy and anonymity, offering a second number as a buffer to keep your personal contact private and away from unsolicited messages.

How it works: select the country and service, copy the provided number, paste it into the service, and watch the verification code appear in the VSim app. It supports a wide range of services (WhatsApp, Telegram, Facebook, Instagram, Tinder, Google, TikTok, Uber, Snapchat, and more) with a pay-per-use pricing model and a refund if the code isn’t received within the designated time.
