Major increase in scam calls

I get a handful of scam calls a week just like anyone, but since I got my 21 ultra I enabled scam block for the first time. It has blocked 4 calls in a month and let through numerous calls daily and it seems to increase every week.

Today alone it seems like I've broken the floodgates as I literally received 14 calls spoofing my area code between 10am and 4pm. My phone literally rang almost non stop today and not a single was a legitimate caller. My wife also noticed a significant increase in scam calls today. Has anyone else seen an increase in scam calls recently or any benefit to scam block?
