If phone_number is a numeric field, then that is a valid number in scientific notation. You just need to change how you display it. You could, for example, increase the numwidth, as demonstrated below.
scott@ORA92> select * from oracle_table;
PHONE_NUMBER
------------
8.6107E+11
scott@ORA92> set numwidth 30
scott@ORA92> select * from oracle_table;
PHONE_NUMBER
------------------------------
861065000000
