Call a Landlord or Seller Without Giving Your Number
Offer a number-free voice call first. It lets you confirm details and judge whether someone is legitimate without handing over your number.
Why it helps
Rental and resale listings attract scammers and spammers. Keeping your number private reduces repeat contact if a deal falls through.
For a quick, number-free call, open GhostCall.
A safer flow
Message on the listing site, do a short call to confirm details, and view the property or item in person before paying anything. Never send a deposit for a rental you haven't seen.
Red flags
Be wary of landlords who say they're out of the country, ask for e-transfers before a viewing, or pressure you to decide quickly.
Make a call without creating an account
GhostCall lets you start a voice call from your browser with no sign-up and no phone number.
Common questions
Should I e-transfer a deposit before viewing?
No. Avoid paying before you've seen the place and confirmed who you're dealing with.
Can I use this for Kijiji or Facebook Marketplace?
Yes, as a way to talk without giving out your number.
What should I check about a landlord?
Ask for their full name and the property address, and verify them through official channels.
