Magic Jack ok?

[ronnyberry]

I have a new Magic Jack to use with my new account - is this something that will be ok? The area code is in the same area as my address

You will use it as your phone line? If the phone number has never been used before, it work fine as a contact phone number I would say.

But do you actually KNOW,rsot

What knowledge do you have of this system?

Inherent danger of this system is the company prefers to never confirm the number is clean

Be careful of your options

A problem with a lot of the VOIP type numbers - you cant really tell if it is being rehashed

Because the big boss said it's OK... :-)

There's a good post by Maxx mentioning it can work also, but it is not a good solution for using multiple stealths. For a single stealth use, I can see it working fine.

So you'll only get one phone number to use. It's not a cheap option to use for creating multiple stealth accounts. There are cheaper alternatives.

Yet you managed to imply otherwise

It will work but only if the number associated with the Magic Jack has never been used before.
