New Service Sets up Private Phone Calls With the Click of a Mouse

PR NEWSWIRE — Sept 9 — PrivateTel, a privacy-oriented telecommunications company, has launched Click-and-Connect enabling members to connect by phone without the need to reveal each other's real phone number.  Click-and-Connect dials both parties, who pick up their phones and chat. Personal security expert Robert Siciliano noted, "what most people don't realize is a home phone number can be traced back revealing a home address and social security number. This makes a person vulnerable to identity theft and can create a security risk if a suitor shows up unannounced at your front door." RELEASE @ PR NEWSWIRE

Mark Brooks: The online personals watch white paper on anonymous phone call providers is nearing completion.  I will give an overview and contrast all major providers of this genre of service.  Email me at mark@courtlandbrooks.com if you would like to be on the priority list for a copy.  There's too large of a gap between people emailing/instant messaging on an online dating site and showing up for their first coffee date. Anonymous phone calling services fill that gap.
