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.

Nothing lately, but it seems to come in waves. Something weird that has started in the last couple months is where I'll get two numbers calling me simultaneously. Sometimes it'll happen 2-3 times in a row before stopping and never leaving a message.
