The big debate on how to stop robocalls has been going on now for several decades. After millions of dollars spent, and millions of dollars lost to the scammers, have things gotten any better?
According to the latest Robocall report from YouMail, Americans experienced a surge in scam calls, with over 3.8 billion robocalls received in November, an increase from 3.3 billion in October.
According to YouMail’s robocall index, Americans have received over 40,765,000,000 robocalls from January to November of 2025. This is nearly 2 billion more robocalls than the same period last year. As you can see from the heat map of robocalls by state, no topic is left out by the scammers.
The following is a recorded transcript of a robocall message that was left with an unsuspecting consumer:
“Hi, this is Camille Rhodes on Monday the 29th, calling from the account escalation review office at the tax relief and resolution agency. I’m reaching out because your account is still unresolved as we enter the final week of the year. Delaying beyond this point could remove certain 2025 relief opportunities. Many individuals reviewed today are qualifying for reduced balances or full resolution after a brief confirmation. Please call me back today at 877-886-0276 again, 877-886-0276. If you no longer need assistance, press 2 when calling back.”
