Its been a few months since I posted on CL, but now all of a sudden it wants a phone number for confirmation before posting my ad. Is that something new, and is there a way around it?
 
That's just to help block out the spammers, to prove to CL that you are a real person in the US. They call back almost immediately to confirm -- it's automated, you just have to hit '1' or something. Your # isn't posted or made available in any way.

Just call from somewhere else if you don't want your # out there.
