Summary

Masked numbers are telephone numbers used in place of actual ones, primarily for privacy protection rather than identity concealment. They are temporary and only valid during the immediate time of a transaction. Virtual phone numbers, on the other hand, are permanent and associated with businesses or individuals. Examples of masked number usage include ride-sharing services, pet-sitting apps, and dating platforms.
