Want to hide your number for a single conversation? Dial 67 before the number you’re calling. It works exactly like wearing a baseball cap and sunglasses for a five-minute walk—temporary, but effective.
After you hang up, your number goes back to normal. It’s a great way to RSVP to that solicitation call or check on a surprise delivery without leaving a digital trail. And the best part? You don’t need to mess with any settings or call your phone company.
Does it work everywhere? Almost always, but not on toll-free 800 numbers or emergency services. Those lines are programmed to ignore the block, which honestly makes sense for safety.
