fones phones are Android phones with real numbers and real IPs. Use them the way you would use your own phone. These rules are part of the [Terms](https://fones.ai/terms) and cover you, your users and your agents.

## Not allowed

- **Spam.** Bulk or unsolicited messages, calls, posts, comments or reviews.
- **Fraud.** Deceiving people or services for gain: payment fraud, fake engagement, fake reviews, phishing, impersonation.
- **Accounts that are not yours.** Signing in to, recovering or holding accounts you are not allowed to use; credential stuffing; receiving someone else's verification codes.
- **Harassment.** Threats, stalking, or content meant to hurt someone.
- **Anything illegal**, where you are, where your users are, or where the phones are.
- **Attacks from our phones.** Scanning, denial of service, malware, or breaking into systems.
- **Reselling** phones, numbers or IPs as a service of your own, unless we agreed it in writing.

## Your risk

Apps have their own rules. If an app limits, flags or bans an account you run on a fones phone, that risk is yours.

## What we do

If we see a breach, or get a credible report of one, we can stop the phones involved at once, revoke keys, and suspend or close the account. Where we can, we tell you first. We keep the activity log of the phones involved as evidence.

## Not sure?

If you are unsure whether something is allowed, write to support@fones.ai before you build it.
