How to format string with spaces in C# .NET?

I need help with string.format to insert three spaces every three digit. This digit is at a fixed length at 12 digits.

var membershipNo = string.Format("{0:### ### ### ###}", "123123123123");
Console.WriteLine(membershipNo);

Result: 123123123123

Expected: 123 123 123 123

This type of formating doesn't work for an instance of string. Consider passing an interger (or any other numeric type) and it will work as expected

int number = 123123123123;
var membershipNo = string.Format("{0:### ### ### ###}", number);
Console.WriteLine(membershipNo);
