Why is "222-222-2222" not a valid phone number?


bdarnell on June 30, 2015 [–]

The phone numbers library isn't just counting digits; it has a
database of which area codes exist (as well as other lesser-known
rules, depending on the country). This makes it more effective at
filtering out invalid/fake phone numbers, but it does mean you need to
stay on top of the latest version as its database changes over time.
