Along with my election related robo-calls I was getting calls from a bill collector and from someone wanting to lower my interest rates on credit cards. Both were somewhat mysterious as I’ve no outstanding bills and I do pay off my credit card monthly, hence no interest.

Anyway. When the election was over all the robo-calls stopped.

Curious?
