A fictitious telephone number refers to a phone number that is not assigned to any real person, business, or service. These numbers are often used in films, television shows, books, or other media to avoid the risk of contacting real individuals or businesses. In many jurisdictions, certain number ranges have been designated specifically for fictitious use.
