Have you experienced a recent dramatic increase in robocalls in the last 48 hours or so?

In the last two days I’ve received 10 robo calls… I know they are robo calls because they are all from my area code (which nobody I talk to uses) and all different numbers. No voice mail, no texts.

This is fairly rare, I usually get one or two a month, but not 10 in 48 hours.

Not in a huge inconvenience, none of them get past Google voice screening, I just see the missed call notifications constantly and it’s annoying.
