I have received at least 15 robo calls in the last 3 days from several different cities as well as unknown id, out of the country, etc. I am sure at least once I said "yes" when the person (recording )said "can you hear me?"

I do not answer the calls anymore when I do not know the caller.

I do not want to change my number because my phone number is on my business cards, and all my friends have my number. I just want to know how to stop it. I also do not want to lose my ID.

I was called by a what sounded a very nice young lady. She asked if I could hear her ok and I said yes. Apparently now this scam has recorded my voice and charges to various accounts of mine might be vulnerable to fraudulent charges.

I was at my office this morning, and someone called, asking if my job title was "X" (and then listed the job title). I was confused by the question but answered 'yes'. The person (in a foreign accent) said that's all they needed, and then hung up. I later read an online article about the yes scam, which I'd already heard about, and then wondered if I'd just gotten scammed. I called back the number, and it was out of service. It may have just been a weird phone call, but between the oddness of the question and the fact that the number is now out of service, I'm very concerned.

It was a robocall designed to get me to say the word "yes". I fell for it. It was a woman's voice. After I answered, the voice said, hello? I answered yes without thinking. Not sure what happens next but I think they got what they wanted.

Scammer called, I answered the phone, they said hello, and I said hello - they said hello again, and I said, "yes who is this?" They immediately launched into "oh let me adjust my headset. You have been at one of our properties and we are offering you a prize" to which I hung up (I have been to no properties anywhere). I believe they were trying to get me to say "yes" to use for cramming.

Received many calls from various numbers. Girl states she dropped her head set and asks if I can hear her. We hung up with no conversation. We have received at least 100 calls or 1 to 2 calls a week with the same girl from various numbers over the last 6 months. Always the same message.

We have not engaged in any conversation with these multiple calls. We just want them to stop. We do not know what kind of business they are supposedly representing.

I get repeated calls from this number from someone stating that vehicle warranty is expiring. I normally hang up. Today I was so frustrated getting this call again that when asked if I wanted to speak with a representative I said "yes". It then asked me again and I replied "yes" a second time. The call was then disconnected. It occurred to me that I may have been recorded so that I could later be charged for something I did not oreder.

Phone call at work and home saying a formal complaint has been filed against me. The caller has my name inserted by a machine in the message. I am to call them back with my whereabouts. I looked the number up on the internet and it has many entries saying that it is a scam to collect money. They do not identify themselves or what the complaint is or where it was filed.
