robocalls

So you're seeing a lot of phone numbers you don't recognize popping up on your phone's caller ID. Be careful about which ones you answer, and more importantly, what happens when you do.

If your experience is anything like mine, it probably feels to you that about half those calls went directly to your phone number.
