Protect your verification code

When you sign up for Google Voice, or add a phone to your account, Google sends you a text message with a verification code. You enter this code to activate Voice on your phone.

Don't share your verification code with anyone

To prevent unwanted access to your account, it's important you don't reply to any requests for your verification code. Google employees will never ask for this code.

Remember that good security practices are critical to the integrity of your Google Account. Learn more at Keeping your account secure.

Disconnect your number from Google Voice

To no longer associate your phone number with Google Voice, disconnect your number.

You can disconnect your number if:

• You’re not a Google Voice user, but have been scammed to give your verification code.
• You don’t want calls forwarded to you from Google Voice.
