Hello Martin . I can see you making your script better . So i have an idea that can help . There is a lot of social networks phone apps that allow to find friends by importing numbers from phone . Like telegram , instagram , vk and others . I think it can be usefull to bruteforce the hidden digits of the phone numbers . Instagram mgp25 library with linkAddressBook api could be usefull . In telegram there are InputPhoneContact/ImportContactsRequest apis in teleton lib. Of cource some limits and problems could be expected but I think this method has a great potential .

Thanks for the suggestion. indeed, there are many sources from which extra digits can be extracted. The problem with OSINT tools is that keeping then working is difficult because they rely a lot on the services they are scrapping and that no significant changes are made.

Also remember that this tool is just a PoC. I've published a new one. Check https://www.martinvigo.com/phonerator-an-advanced-valid-phone-number-generator/
