Overview of programs that allow you to send SMS with the substitution of the sender's number.

I accidentally found out about the ability to send SMS on behalf of anyone. They wanted to play a friend with friends and I decided to search the Internet - is it really possible? It turned out that this service is quite common. The price of such SMS ranges from 3-5 to several tens of rubles. As a result of searches and numerous tests, it turned out that everything is not so simple. As a result, and help to those who want to be able to send SMS with the substitution of numbers, publish a small overview of the software that I could find. Immediately, I’m noting that I was looking for programs, and not sending SMS from a website, because All sites that were found offered to send an SMS to a short number in order to be able to send. This method is not credible - one, and the high price - two.

Now about the programs found in the order of their issuance by Yandex.

1. SMSBomba and other viruses.

The first was a product called SMSBomba . Directly on the site you can not send SMS with substitution - they offer to download their program. Downloaded. When trying to install, DrWeb reported that a trojan in the archive, “smsbomba.exe, is infected with Trojan.Fakesms.6,” so the program was not considered further.

In this review I cite it only as an example of the need to use antivirus when searching for this kind of software. I came across a few more programs with a virus, I will not talk about everyone.

2. SmsTool

The second thing that caught my eye - SmsTool . There is no site of its own, the program is located in soft directories. The ability to send SMS with the substitution of the authors stated.

Downloaded. Result at startup:

As far as I understood, some libraries are missing. Well, it means no luck. We continue our search.

3. SendSMS3

The third program that I came across is SendSMS3 from www.sidec.ru

The program features declared support for sending with the substitution. The site is more or less normal, happy to shake. But unfortunately I get:

I thought that I could even send an ordinary SMS - it was not there. It was not possible to send to Peter MTS - “number error, operator is not supported.” After several attempts, “Successfully sent.” SMS is not. I tried several more times. Still "successful", but did not receive the SMS. As a result, received the message "Stop spamming." And SMS is still waiting.

In general, everything is beautiful - and the site and the program. Impressions are positive. Only one minus does not work :)

4. Coyote

Well, let's go further. The following program Coyote 0.3.0.2 sms. Program site - www.cwer.ru/coyote_0_3_0_2 .

In spite of the fact that Yandex issued it as a supporting dispatch with the substitution of a number, I did not find any mention of this on the author’s website. I decided to download, watch. Sorry, but really not. However, all the declared functions work - SMS sends. But this is not what I needed, so go ahead.

5. TipTopSMSWin

The following is a program TipTopSMSWin v2.8 . from the site tip-top-sms.ru

Honestly, the possibilities were pleasantly surprised - up to the opportunity to receive a response to the SMS. However, I retired from the topic. The program declared the possibility of sending with the substitution. So swing.

The interface, compared with previous programs is very simple and straightforward. I try to send an SMS with a substitution - and indeed, in less than a couple of minutes, I received an SMS from my friend, from whose number I sent an SMS.

Honestly, I didn’t even believe it.

In general, not bad, but we continue to search further.

6. Miscellaneous

The next two programs disappeared immediately, because do not support sending with substitution.

Smsdv v1.8 smsdv.narod.ru

SMS-Sendor v2.4 www.sms-sendor.com.ru

Download them and did not try.

7. Yakoon

Next came the program Yakoon v2.0 from the site www.yakoon.com
Immediately I was seduced by the low price and the announced possibility of changing the number.
We swing. The interface was quite pleasant, but exclusively in English.

On tests gave 3 SMS. SMS with the substitution of numbers - reached, but after a positive experience, I am no longer surprised

More search on Yandex did not give anything.

Summary.

Actually, only two programs were able to send an SMS with the substitution of the number, and as a result we can compare them.
