[Telephone] 30 telemarketers today
I've been receiving a huge influx of telemarketing and scam calls since February 1st. It peaked today at
30 calls. Some call multiple times. Some leave messages on my answering machine. It's all sales calls like "Refinance your mortgage!" or scams like "This is Amazon Prime. Someone was trying to use your VISA card" (I don't have a Visa).
It's never been this bad before. I had a lot of success with manually adding numbers to the blocked list on my Manage Voice page in my Spectrum account services. But something must have changed February 1st.
I've got the new Call Guard enabled. Is there some trick to get this damn thing to actually do its job? It claims to have blocked only 1 number from the sea of telemarketers today. I also find it very odd that each of the entries I click on for that number of February 1st are all calls at 9:34 PM (see attached image). There are about 20 of them on my Call Guard pages, all at exactly 9:34 PM. Could my Call Guard be bugged/broken? I'm not sure of the rules for posting phone numbers, so I've erased some digits. They're all the same number on Feb 1st.
