I get robocalls on my cell all damn day long
Do you do social media from your phone? Twitter. Facebook. Etc.

Everyone I know that has given their number to Facebook gets more spam than Guam. Facebook is not free. They sell everything they can find out about you. Including phone numbers.

Don't do Twitter at all, it is a toilet and my phone number is not on my Facebook.

Never said they were but someone else on this thread said cell phones don't get robocalls, which is false

Just because YOU haven't added your phone number to facebook, doesn't mean THEY haven't associated your phone number to your facebook account. Everything you do on your phone is associated with your IMEI or ICCID, which is easily linked to your cell number. There are even services that "fingerprint" the browser you are using, which makes it pretty easy to identify different folks hitting websites even if you're going through a VPN service. The VPN masks your IP address, but still leaves your browser info available to the website because the website "needs" that information to customize their service so it displays correctly.

And folks CAN legally call you on your cell number if they are SOMEHOW associated with you. You'd be surprised how many companies are "affiliated" with other companies and can legally share your contact info and can legally contact you via robocall services.

Doesn't make it right, but it's legal.

I use my phone for actual phone calls and texts to family and friends. Don't surf, shop or do social media on it.

They’ve gotten it somehow and sold it multiple times to multiple people. There is no escaping it.
