However, it’s possible that it could be put to use in the future if the demand for phone numbers increases. In the meantime, this code is just one of the many general-purpose area codes that remain unassigned in the 200–999 range.
A phone call from area code 654 is considered spam. There is no such thing as a 654-xxx-xxx phone number. If you receive a call and the caller or a recording asks you to press a button to stop receiving calls, hang up. Scammers frequently use this technique to identify potential victims.
