there are people on Monero Market who will do it for you. SMS pool and Text Verified are also viable.

If in the states, fake info plus a prepaid carrier should work, right? Havent brought a sim in a bit but you should be able to just buy one in a drugstore with cash or has that changed

Edit: should go without saying but I would also opt for a carrier that offers totp as a 2fa method

In A LOT of places this is not legal. At least where I live, you can get a "gray" sim registered to another person, but idk how much you can rely on one. And you have to search around for them.

Edit: also knew a guy who was using jmp.chat for a number.

In a lot of places, a prepaid is just something you can buy, cash, in a shop. No papers please.
