Sweden here.

I do the same thing. One phone number is just unusable and I don't answer any calls anymore, mostly UK callers recruiting, or other random spam.

The other, which I don't give to almost anyone except close friends/family, gets no spam. Not sure where my first phone number ended up to become spam target, but I remember I got a call once, when that was really uncommon, which an offer to change insurance companies... I was pissed off with my previous company so I actually did it, and it actually worked well, it was not malicious... but since then I think I was added to a list of "spam-friendly idiot" or something.
