Default Simple way for people to text me anonymously?

What recommended web sites or services are there which are simple to set
up and which let the other party SMS me without showing their number?

Of course I get lots of Google hits for "free SMS" but ....

which sites are recommended for being reliable in sending the SMS
without delay and not collecting mobile numbers or adding particularly
intrusive text?

Why would you want to receive anonymous texts? ....would you be able
to reply to them ? .

I think the OP meant -

"What recommended web sites or services are there which are simple to
set up and would let me stalk someone via SMS without showing my
number?"

I think what the OP really meant was "how do I send SMS to people
anonymously", presumably with obscene / threatening content...

Not sure why you would want to send anonymous SMS to people but try
searching FREE SMS in Google. You'll find a couple of PC 2 SMS
solutions and it should still show a sender ID. Just not yours...

I don't have an answer but
I think that the OP made it quite clear. He wants to be able to
receive texts from people without being able to see thier number. Why?
Well, then he can tell people that their number remains confidential
to them. It may be that, if the person needs a reply, that they
include their phone number or email address. Not all texts require a
reply - it might be a vote on something for example. People don't want
to be spammed with text messages so they may be rluctant to send a
text if they think that their number is being harvested. It then just
depends on whether a texter trust the recipient.
Remove 'no_spam_' from email address.

Are you looking to cloak your sender number as someone else, or just
be anonymous?
Most SMS API systems provide a means of speciying the sender ID, even
as alphanumeric charachters
which may or may not be supported on all phones
