IRVINE, Calif., May 9, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- U.S. consumers received just over 4.4 billion robocalls in April, which represents a 3.4% increase over March but a 3.1% decrease over March 2023. Despite the increase, we are now in the fifth month in a row below 150 million calls/day, and the sixth month in a row with a year-over-year decline in robocalls.
- The increase in scam calls raised the number of likely unwanted calls to 2.25 billion for April, or over half of all robocalls in the month.
