Anyone else in the US getting an absurd amount of scam calls? (hexbear.net)

I usually get a few scam calls every day but in the last week or so it's increased exponentially. For example: I've received 19 in the past 6 hours. Just curious if this is happening to everyone or just me.

Of the 36 phone calls I've received since the start of the year only 3 of them have been real ass human beans.

This shit's been bad for years for me, I suspect the longer you hold on to a phone or number the more places it gets "stuck" and the more registers it gets added to etc.
