About 6 months ago here in Australia I had a run of getting spam called by a number which was the same as my number but off by 1 digit. Seemed like a clever method to peak peoples interest but made it pretty obvious to me it was spam.

I believe it also takes non-https traffic from apps but since they made https mandatory quite some time ago now I suspect that is not much. Also content loaded inside email in Mail.
