From the Web

Text messages can be sent anonymously and for free by downloading an app or using a website, as long as you know the mobile phone provider of the person you are trying to text. For example, if your friend uses 02, you could visit AnonTxt.com, choose 02 as the provider and send a text message. You can leave the "from" field empty to make it anonymous!
