Weird numbers in Facebook marketplace ads

[musthaverust]

Does anyone know why some ads on marketplace have a weird looking number as the car model?



Wondering if its something suspicious 🤔

P.s. this is an example, i am absolutely not interested in this particular car...

It’s the mileage.






(I know it’s not before anyone gets upset. It’s a joke about the age of the car and the big number. You can tell it’s a joke because it’s not a Volvo)

A way of getting your phone number in the ad? If you take the 1593 off and move the 0 on the end to the start it makes a mobile number. No idea why you would want to do that though as FB Messenger is fine and you can just ring the person on it anyway.

When I last sold a car on marketplace it would sometimes change the ad title without me doing anything. Might be the case here. Facebook is crap basically
