I get these too. But last month I had a first: we have this old land line that we never use, it only exists for emergencies. We started getting calls to it from an irate Mexican saying that we were spam calling him, and to please stop! The poor guy was at his wit's end. Lots of swearing in spanish. I couldn't quite catch who he thought we were, but it was some sort of robocall thing.

They have some way of using a live, active phone number as a cover for their robocalls.
