Do you have a NYC number? Or is this happening across the US? I've been getting them for a couple of months now and there was just a post on the NYC subreddit the other day talking about it. I thought I was the only one, and since I don't speak Mandarin, I assumed someone just accidentally gave my number to a Chinese business of some sort.

Is it always from the same number? I bet we (Nomorobo) have some recordings that I can dig up.
I googled a number that called me and found a recording from your site: https://www.nomorobo.com/lookup/212-244-9781

No idea what it's saying, and I'm assuming your transcription is just creating garbage by assuming the mandarin is english?

Yep. No idea either. Is this a legit message?

I’ll run some stats in a few.

Not OP, but I received one of these calls the other day.

Residing in Toronto, Ontario.

I received one yesterday and I live in New Zealand.
