This is something of an "on one hand, on the other hand" story. I'm going to start by heaping faint praise on Verizon, but I'll end by scolding them. Are you surprised? Of course not.
We all get spam calls, scam calls, and robocalls. According to the US Federal Trade Commission Report on Robocalls CG Docket No. 17-59, nearly half of all calls made to cell phones in 2019 will be robocalls. Additionally, there are human-driven spam and scam calls that will add to that call volume.
