Of people listing their phone numbers like this? Been seeing it quite often here on the Forum. Maybe they're testing my mental acuity.  254.2five3.7four6eight

Family is everything!
Life is precious. We donโt have forever. We have now. This moment. We can choose to love our lives now.

Spam sites search the web for numbers. List it that way and the spam sites will not recognize it as a phone number.

Also, places that won't allow you direct communications with other parties can block a numerical phone number. Put in a couple of numbers spelled out and can get around that feature.
