Anyone else being inundated with spam phone calls today?

Trying to recover from a mild illness (allergies?) and I’ve gotten at least 6 calls on the voip (not in the bedroom) and 4 on the cell phone (which i can quickly block but it’s annoying).

Are you also getting an uptick? I have Nomorobo, and Comcast is starting to block some, but just wondering if others are getting an unusual number of calls.

Wow - I was disconnected........
