Was called at my work phone by "Richard Sutton", phone number 336-272-9939. Asked if I was and when I said "Yes", it hung up. I called back and the number was not in service. Found stuff on the Internet about the "Yes" Scam where they do this and use my recorded name for phone authorization for services, credit card charges, cable bills, etc. I immediately put my credit card on hold and called my bank to watch for unusual activity.

Caller called the phone where I work. I usually answer the phone and say the business name and then my first name and How Can I Help You. He said, Is This (my first name and last name)? I said yes and then he hung up. He had a very heavy foreign accent. I should have known better but didn’t think quick enough.
