New report highlights ‘rampant’ phone spam problem; 73.6M unwanted calls per day in Q1
A new report from Seattle startup Hiya highlights the ongoing problem of phone fraud and spam calls. The report found that during the first quarter of this year, nearly 25% of all unknown calls globally were flagged as spam or fraud — that’s 73.6 million per day.
Received a call from David - called me acting as if we were old friends and started on his story talking about doing a Manolo Blahnik photo shoot crushing bugs for $500/hr. Asked if I liked bugs, even cockroaches and beetles. Told him I had to go and he said he'd call back another time. Creepy.
