After millions of dollars spent, and millions of dollars lost to the scammers, have things gotten any better?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to YouMail\u2019s 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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.innovsys.com\/innovsys\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/VC_12-25_17B.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\" noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"408\" src=\"https:\/\/www.innovsys.com\/innovsys\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/VC_12-25_17B-1024x408.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-23389\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.innovsys.com\/innovsys\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/VC_12-25_17B-1024x408.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.innovsys.com\/innovsys\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/VC_12-25_17B-300x120.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.innovsys.com\/innovsys\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/VC_12-25_17B-768x306.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.innovsys.com\/innovsys\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/VC_12-25_17B.jpg 1364w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The following is a recorded transcript of a robocall message that was left with an unsuspecting consumer:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHi, this is Camille Rhodes on Monday the 29th, calling from the account escalation review office at the tax relief and resolution agency.
