Many friends will encounter a problem when registering for Gmail: mobile phone number verification, which may include problems such as "mobile phone number cannot be verified", "domestic mobile phone number verification failed", "cannot receive verification code", etc. However, based on real cases, some people are "lucky" to not have a mobile phone number verification step. So today the editor will give you a good lesson to help you overcome this "difficulty"!
1. There is no mobile phone verification step when registering for Gmail?
This is not a matter of probability, it is because Google's defense algorithm mechanism is not triggered, similar to some websites not showing verification codes while others require CHAPTER verification. Although this may make it easier for us to get a Gmail account, it is recommended that you bind an available mobile phone number to your account for verification in the future to improve security. If you are lucky enough to skip the "mobile phone verification" step, there are mainly the following reasons:
-
Google policy and regional factors
-
Specific regional policies : Depending on the user's region and Google's policies, mobile phone verification may not be required for registration in some areas. For example, in some countries, the network environment and policies are relatively relaxed, and Google's verification process for account registration may be simplified, and users may be able to skip the mobile phone verification step to complete the registration.
-
Risk assessment results : The Google system will conduct a risk assessment on the registration environment and user information. If the system determines that the registration behavior has a low risk, such as using a common device, a stable network, and the registration information is complete and without abnormalities, mobile phone verification may not be required.
-
-
Registration environment factors
-
Network stability and purity : If the network connection is stable, the IP address is pure, and there are no abnormal situations such as frequent IP changes or IP abuse, Google may consider the registration environment safe and skip the mobile phone verification. For example, if you use a home network and the network is not used for a large number of abnormal registration behaviors, the mobile phone verification link may not appear during registration.
-
Browser and device : Using a browser recommended by Google (such as Chrome) with correct browser settings, no cache and cookie issues, and using a common device to register may also reduce Google's concerns about registration security and not trigger mobile phone verification.
-
-
Account related factors
-
Auxiliary verification information is complete : If the user fills in detailed and accurate auxiliary email and other information when registering, Google may believe that even if the mobile phone verification is not passed, the security and recoverability of the account can be guaranteed, thus skipping the mobile phone verification step.
-
Good previous registration record : If the user has a good record of successfully registering or using Google services on the device or network environment, the system may no longer require mobile phone verification based on trust.

2. How to solve the problem of blocked mobile phone number verification when registering Gmail?
During the Gmail registration process, if you encounter the prompt message "This phone number cannot be used for verification", it usually means that Google has triggered the anti-machine registration program and the verification code failed to be sent. The following are several possible reasons that may lead to verification failure:
(1) The network environment is unstable or there are risks:
-
Line problem: This is due to an abnormal IP address. The network environment you are currently using may be volatile or unstable, such as public IP/high-risk IP connection, especially some people use some tools, and then other users under those IPs have made sensitive actions, such as batch registration of Google, collection of Google, etc., which will cause the IP to be blocked. Google will refuse to use the mobile phone number in the network environment for verification to prevent the account from being maliciously registered or stolen.
-
Regional issues: If your network environment is marked as a high-risk area, such as an area with a large amount of spam or cyber attacks, Google will restrict mobile phone numbers from these areas for verification.
-
At this time, you need to use a legal and compliant proxy IP tool. IPFoxy is a professional proxy service provider that provides proxy connection options in over 200 regions. At the same time, these IPs are independent and pure, which can avoid verification problems caused by misuse and abuse of unsafe IPs.
(2) Browser device is detected:
-
Historical abnormal operations: If the browser you use has frequently switched IP addresses or used automated scripts, these abnormal behaviors may trigger Google's security alerts and cause the mobile phone number verification to fail.
-
Multiple accounts in the same browser: If you register multiple accounts using the same browser without preventing association, Google will doubt your registration intention and set up obstacles. Deleting the browser cache and cookies is ineffective. You can switch to a completely new environment.
-
Uncommon browsers: If you use an uncommon browser or one that is not yet trusted, Google may consider it a potential risk, so it is best to use the common Chrome or Firefox.
(3) The mobile phone number itself is abnormal:
-
Used for verification multiple times: If the mobile phone number you entered has been used for verification multiple times or has been frequently used by others to register, reaching the upper limit of the number of verifications set by the algorithm, then this number will no longer be able to be used for verification for a short period of time.
-
Unknown number source: If the mobile phone number you use comes from a virtual platform or Internet phone service provider instead of a traditional mobile operator, it may be detected by the authorities and suspected of malicious behavior and prohibited from operation.
