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.

what I've been getting is tons of those stealth spam texts with pretend shit like "Where do you want to meet tomorrow, [name that's not mine]?" sometimes accompanied by a picture of a woman

Whenever I get a random number texting me asking something like that I just tell them to eat shit.
