Benefits of using a temporary phone number for Faceit
Faceit is a leading independent platform for competitive online gaming, providing matchmaking, tournaments, and leagues for a variety of popular esports titles. To ensure fair play and a secure environment, Faceit requires phone verification for its users. For any serious gamer, using a temporary phone number is a crucial step to protect both their gaming and personal identity.
Protect Your Gaming Persona
Your Faceit profile is a key part of your competitive gaming identity, complete with your stats, rankings, and reputation. Linking your personal phone number to this profile can bridge the gap between your online persona and your real-world life. A virtual number lets you complete the verification process without surrendering this private information. This allows you to compete and communicate with the confidence that your real identity is secure and separate from the gaming world.
Prevent Harassment and Doxing
The competitive nature of esports can sometimes lead to toxic behavior. If a disgruntled opponent were to discover your real phone number, it could lead to harassment or even doxing. A disposable phone number acts as a vital shield. It is used solely to receive the verification SMS, ensuring your primary contact information is never exposed. This protects you from any potential out-of-game retaliation or invasion of your privacy.
Secure Your Account from Takeovers
High-ranking Faceit accounts can be valuable and are often targeted by hackers. Your phone number can be a vulnerability, especially in SIM-swapping scenarios. By not using your main number for your Faceit account, you add a significant layer of security. It makes it much harder for anyone to attempt a fraudulent password recovery or gain unauthorized access to the account you've worked hard to build.
