Question

This is the question -

Write a program that inserts parentheses, a space, and a dash into a string of 10 user-entered numbers to format it as a phone number. For example, 5153458912 becomes (515) 345-8912. If the user does not enter exactly 10 digits, display an error message. Continue to accept user input until the user enters 999.

This is the code I have - However it isn't seeming to accept my output. It doesn't like what I have for some reason - 
 
import java.util.*;
public class PhoneNumberFormat {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // Write your code here  //Create an instance of Scanner class

     Scanner keyboard=new Scanner(System.in);

     //declare string data type variables

     String phoneNumber= "";

     String formattedPhoneNumber="";

     /*Run the loop infinitely until user enters 999 to exit from program*/

     while(true)

     {

       System.out.println("Enter phone number: ");

       phoneNumber=keyboard.nextLine();

       //exit from the program if enters 999

       if(phoneNumber.equalsIgnoreCase("999"))

      

         System.exit(0);

         if(phoneNumber.length() < 10)

         System.out.println("Invalid phone number .");

         else {

           /* append the ( +xxx++) three characters to formattedPhoneNumber */

           formattedPhoneNumber+= "(" + phoneNumber.substring(0, 3) + ")";

           //append next three characters

           formattedPhoneNumber+=phoneNumber.substring(3, 6);

           formattedPhoneNumber+="-";

           /* Then append rest of the phoneNumber to the formattedPhoneNumber */

           formattedPhoneNumber+= phoneNumber.substring(6, phoneNumber.length());

           //print the formatted phone number

           System.out.println(formattedPhoneNumber);

           }//end of else case

       }

     }

   }
 
This is what the program is showing as it counts it wrong -
