Can I remove my phone number from a Craigslist ad?

Asked a year ago
Yes, you can remove your phone number from a Craigslist ad. To do so, you need to go to the "Manage" section in your craigslist account. Find the specific ad you want to edit and click on the "Edit" button. Within the ad details, locate the phone number field and delete your phone number from the text box. After making the necessary changes, click on the "Continue" or "Update" button to save the modified ad. Alternatively, if you did not create an account when posting the ad, you can use the link provided in the confirmation email to edit or remove your ad, including your phone number. Remember, Craigslist encourages users to be cautious with sharing personal information, so it is advisable to use the anonymous email provided by the platform for communication instead.
