Jailbreak Only: FakeMail - Sure It's Cool, But Maybe A Little Creepy, Too?

June 5, 2011
FakeMail is a recently released jailbreak app, which allows users to send messages from a "fake" email address. Once you've downloaded the package (it's available in Cydia via the BigBoss Repository, for free), simply write out an email in the app, input the recipient's email address and input your desired email address, along with your "fake name." When the email is received, the fake name and email address will be displayed as if it's the real thing. Before you get too concerned, FakeMail doesn't allow users to send "fake emails" from exiting email addresses - only non-existant ones. Which means that users of the app aren't going to try to impersonate your boss or your spouse and email you in a disastrous prank-gone-wrong (a relief, if you ask me). However, FakeMail does look like it could provide users with a bit of fun. As mentioned, it's available to download for free in Cydia, via the BigBoss Repository. [via Redmond Pie]
