Hello,

I'm currently using the U.S app store and have credit on my account (which makes it impossible to switch regions), unfortunately i'm not in the U.S and don't have an address/phone number.

So I just put a random address and phone number.
I really don't mind faking my address, but i'm curious how dangerous is it to put a random phone number?
What is it exactly used for?
What info is sent or requested when I purchase an app, or any other time?

Thanks a lot.
