Stop Worrying About Creeps Calling [App Of The Day]

Source: http://gizmodo.com/5932884/burner-stop-worrying-about-creeps-calling

Everyone’s been there. You politely talk to some weirdo in a bar, and when the conversation ends, the guy wants your number. You’re nice and you don’t know how to say no. So you give it away reluctantly, and it can’t be fake, because he’s going to call you immediately so you have his digits too. Ugh. But because of a new app called Burner, you’ll never have to experience that horror ever again.

Gives you a fake number to use that you can give out freely because you can kill the number whenever you want.

It’s not just for fending off randoms. You could also use Burner when you’re making a Craigslist transaction, going on an OKCupid date, searching for a job, or completing a drug deal if you’re into that. You can use whichever area code you want, so if you want to fool a girl into thinking you’re an out of towner that she’ll never see again, you can do that (you asshole). It comes with enough credits for one number, but you can always buy more for $2 each. You never know when you’ll have to defend your phone.
