>>I tend to answer with just my forename and surname
The moment you answer that phone number is marked down as active and the list it is on increases in value. If you give your name then that is also added to the list and also increases the value.
It is not the call that you are taking which is your main threat. It is the next one. Often the initial call is used to gain information that will be used to add credibility to a subsequent call.
Answer it if you need, as I said I do on my cell phone, but don't give information. *any* information.
