Googling for the phone number leads to this page:

http://hodges-directory.us/directory.php?q=3dt0-312-543-5737-Chicago-Illinois-S-Coles-Ave

Details of the phone number: Jessica Brown N Lotus Ave Chicago Illinois

Googling “Jessica Brown” “N Lotus Ave” Chicago Illinois, this page pops up:

www.linkedin.com/in/jessicabrown10/

Quote from LI profile: Development Director at The Young Center for Immigrant Children's Rights The Young Center for Immigrant Children's Rights University of Chicago

Can’t say if it’s the same person, though. Weird coincidence, I should think.

EDITED: This page http://www.cityfreq.com/phone/312543.html lists a completely different name, though: 312-543-1456 is LEORA LORENCE. How can this be?

so according to this post: https://www.reddit.com/r/personalfinance/comments/3zgeib/found_false_phone_numbers_on_hodges_directory/ something odd is going on with Hodges Directory. Personally I'm not too sure what to make of this one, but fwiw, I happen to live in chicago practically right next to UChicago and a couple of my family members are employed there. If that linkedin info is accurate, it is quite odd that she happens to work for The Young Center for Immigrant Children's Rights. I kinda doubt that my going there and looking around would produce any useful results, but I'm certainly willing to if someone makes a compelling case for deeper investigation on this.

I doubt that too, at least at the moment. One thought I had is that maybe she uploaded this photo by mistake. Not very likely, but still possible. In any case, some digging into this person and the organization wouldn't hurt.

I thought that might be the case also, especially if she uploaded the photo from a mobile, for example. Although if it's actually a child trafficking listing, what's up with listing the "car" as having 63k miles? anyone know if "mileage" or something related is a commonly used term in this world?

I remember a while ago someone posted a thread to a pedo chat room where they were talking about buying CP. They were obviously using cheese pizza as a code and the ad included how long the pizza should be in the oven (6 to 12 min. or something) alluding to how old the kids were. Maybe 63k means 6months to 3 years. I don't know, just throwing it out there.

Or 6 to 12 Minutes = 6 to 12 Months, while 63K maybe 63 weeKs

Maybe 3 6's. 666. (The price does seem to be in the ballpark for those.)

I used information from the ad to find out if anything is used as a keyword for "interested parties". No luck so far.
