Fake-fake, or Google Voice-fake?

I'd be worried about being locked out at some point; I get asked to confirm I'm me via phone/SMS fairly regularly.

I find many companies rejecting Google voice numbers, calling them VoIP services (which is kind of funny, most mobile is VoIP these days)

Ditto. Even worse, I've tried to sign up for some services which reject the VoIP number and then send that number spam anyway. This has happened with a concert ticketing service and a food delivery app now.
