Question on facebook

[Sabatino]

Hi all;
One friend asked me to create some facebook accounts because he is not able to do it (he is not a boss with the PC…).
Ok, no problem, I think: some new email accounts, different names and surnames and everything is ok.
After the first account facebook ask me for the confirmation with an sms, maybe is my IP address?
I change email, change IP, delete the cookies but it is the same, it always ask me a phone number and the confirmation by Sms.
If I change browser I can create a new one but at the second the problem appear again.
I reset the pc but nothing: I think that if I change the pc maybe I will have the same problem.
At this point it is a personal issue for me : how can facebook understand that it always me that create a new account and not another person that is creating his first account?
Do you know which parameter facebook use to ask or not this phone number?
Another doubt: if you are in an internet point how do you connect? everyone must insert his mobile number?
Thank you for your help.

Sabatino, I really don't know. FB does prohibit multiple profiles, and can/will delete all accounts from anyone they catch at it. And they do get your IP address every time you access their site. But I don't know if it's the IP or something else that is causing them to require a cell number when you attempt to create a second profile. It could very well be that. They want to be able to send a confirmation to your cell phone that you have to reply to from that phone. It may be a way to allow multiple users from one household to create separate FB accounts, while at the same time discouraging individuals from creating multiple profiles.

If so, that's something that they came up with after I'd created a second, fake profile. That was quite awhile ago, though.

You could set up one of the accounts for your friend on his computer, and you do the other one on yours.
That's assuming that you only intend to make two profiles.

If you are making several, have you tried going through a proxy server, so as to disguise your IP each time?
