Anyone notice spam calls from sportsbooks seem to start almost immediately after picking up your phone to browse sites?
I get the feeling their tracking bugs almost seem to get alerted when I'm online with my phone. Am I crazy?

Are you browsing the sportsbook website at the time logged in? That's the only way I can think of them tracking you. If they know you're online via your mobile device they would be more apt to possibly call you

I'm not sure they are always from sportsbooks but I do recognize a few of the numbers and who uses them. I believe most of them are .Of course they do the old trick of changing numbers and area codes.
It's usually the same 3 or 4 book...you know the ones that are notorious for cold calls . Also quite often I get an email shortly after. I never answer calls from people I don't know by the way.

Dont get me started on Comcast. They call constantly and leave a voicemail even though they aren't even available in my area.
I dunno if it’s them, I just decline the call instantly but the caller ID shows as “Xfinity” … they never leave a voicemail though. No clue if you can if the call is declined

You guys got me wrong. I find these calls a bit annoying but I'm not one to overreact. I don't answer...if they leave message fine...drop an email fine. I was just more curious if anyone else seemed to be experiencing what I stated in my original post.
