Anyone else with AT&T getting a shite ton of spam calls?

Spam callers need dick cancer

In the last few months I've gotten a ton of local area code spam calls. Before it was 1-800 type numbers.

I have Verizon and I get at least 2 calls every week from the NC 919 area code where they call and leave a 5 second voicemail message with nothing on it. I keep blocking the numbers and they continue. This has been happening for 4 months.

Yes, every one of them want to talk to me about my loan approval. Is it possible they're trying to get you to answer and say something just to get a sample of your voice and use it with AI technology for something more sinister?

Yes I hate it!

I have active armor and still get calls but they get sent straight to voicemail by the app.


The past couple of weeks I’ve gotten calls 2 or 3 times a day about some stupid life reset, qualified for a loan and the stupid past toll dues. Its has gotten out of hand.

My phone is old. I badly need a new one, but I have this one right where I want it. The last spam call I got was on September 9 of last year. I've managed to never answer a spam call with this number/phone, and it has paid off. I just have a feeling that when I have to break down and buy a new one from AT&T it will not be the same.

ETA: The key is to just never answer that first spam call. My voicemail is set up to tell people that if they are calling from a number I don't know I will not answer and they will either need to leave a message or send a text. Also, I'm a droid user, and always will be. I know it is a personal anecdote, but the people I know whither iPhones seem to get way more spam calls.

I didn't get any yet today, but I got around 15 the last couple days. I haven't answered any but they are all coming from a 337-270-#### with the last 4 being different every time.

I had that for awhile but had to have them remove it. It would block the verification code texts from my bank and whatnot so I couldn't log into certain things with dual authentication.
