Did they register a large block of phone numbers? I reverse searched the number they gave me, and it was valid, but I called it and the number is "not reachable".

Exactly this. What of the companies that require "SMS" verification? Where does the text go to?
It's the correct area code for the city and zip code, but otherwise a completely randomly generated phone number. rand(201,799)-rand(1000-9999).
