Anyone else have trouble logging in yesterday? Weird.
Bought a new Trafone. When I powered it up, it asked for a PIN code. I tried 1234,0000, and the other 4 same 4 digit combos (1111,2222, etc.). Without trying almost 10,000 other combos, would anybody know what the PIN would be?
Would doing a factory reset on the phone turn it into a brick or take me back where I should be for the set up?
Returning the phone is not an option. I do not want to through the stealth mode again.
TIA.

Though I never had a PIN set out of the box. Did you buy it used?

How often do you guys get the threatening text messages from "pimps" threatening to kill you for wasting their girls time? Got another one today (with graphic images of people brutally killed), but I seem to be getting them at least once a month.

If the question of what are your rates even though it isn't published is considered as "wasting time", then I'm guilty 100%.

When you step back from things. Question for why'all to chew on. Why do the ladies date you, then proceed to give you a secondary number and sometimes even their real name but then never respond on the new number? Is it a way to screen your ass so you don't repeat? Is the second number handled by their boyfriend / pimp? Do they change numbers so much that it doesn't really matter? I am asking for thoughts because I have sent messages to the new number and got crickets. I messaged the number in the ad and received messages back within minutes. Looking for theories on why this is done?

But it did incline me to seek them out more because they "trusted" me. So all in all, probably just some clever marketing on their part.
Why yours don't answer, I don't know.
But my working theory on all this is: the only thing more irrational than a hooker is someone who expects rational behavior from hookers
