Contact Steam support.

Or you could transfer the number or SIM card to the new phone vs getting a new number.

Then you're going to have to decide whether

1) putting a sim card into a new phone

or

2) contacting support, providing proof of ownership, waiting for them to remove the existing phone number

is more 'work'.

Yeah support sorted it quickly for me, just supplied them with the old number and they removed it.

How the hell does someone get in such a situation as to get their phone ran over? How is this even possible?

Same scenario, except running over the phone. Where my brother crushed my phone... lol anyways Contact steam support about how you got a new phone blah blah blah, just give them as much info as possible, send pictures of recent receipts, address (email), give them as much. But problem to this support... They sleep on the job, I waited almost a week for them to remove my number and put the steam guard on the email. My friend is still waiting exactly 3 months to get his War Thunder verification off. So patience is key.
