  I’m sorry but you will have to remove the phone number from wherever you posted it and I don’t know where that is. If it is on a post or page in your blog then see here:

  IMPORTANT NOTE: Deleting blog content does not remove it from the SERPs (search engine page results). Google and Bing only clear their caches of deleted indexed content that produces a 404 (page not found) every 3 – 6 months.

  You also need to remove your email address from your contact me page and use a secure contact form instead, so email harvesting spam bots don’t get it. http://en.support.wordpress.com/contact-form/
