Using a Fake Phone Number in my Game

Hello, I was wanting to add a fake phone number to my Roblox game that’s obviously fake, such as (666) 666-6666 or (123) 456-MAMA-MIAS.

But before adding these, I was just wondering if–as obviously fake as they are–implementing them would somehow break the Roblox ToS on privacy or sharing personal information.

If I was going to do that, I would use 8 numbers just to be on the safe side

I believe, if I’m correct. Skip the area code and create a number starting with 555. So (000) 555-7272, I believe all numbers with 555 are reserved for movies and don’t lead anywhere.

Not all phone numbers that start with 555 are reserved for movies.

If it’s a very obvious fake number (eg any 555 phone number or as you said all the same number like 666-6666) then you should be fine.
