I usually get a few scam calls every day but in the last week or so it's increased exponentially. For example: I've received 19 in the past 6 hours. Just curious if this is happening to everyone or just me.

No more than normal, usually like one or two a day.
Though, I've been unemployed for a few months now and the amount of scam jobs I see is insane. I get so many emails all with the exact same wording and I feel like 50% of the jobs on LinkedIn are fake. There was a day last fall where I got 20 calls/texts from people from the same company wanting to schedule an interview... It was all within 15 minutes of each other, all different numbers leaving voicemails. Weird shit.
Take this with a grain of salt cuz I only learned this recently and haven't looked into it, but apparently that's literally true. Some companies will continually post and repost listings for jobs that don't actually exist. I'm still hazy on why exactly. I was told it was so that they would appear to be growing at all times, but again, take it with a grain of salt.
