This has been going on for several years. I am not exaggerating. Over 100 every weekday. They usually want my Medicare info, almost always with South Asian accents. About six months ago I finally had to use iPhone's built-in call screening app. It has made my life so much more peaceful. Illegitimate scammers ignore the do-not-call registry. My phone now only dings me if the number is in my contacts list.
