Yes, they can record your saying "Yes" to later claim you authorized something. I never answer the phone unless I recognize the name or number. If someone I know is calling from an unfamiliar number, they know I won't pick up unless they start talking into my machine.

I don't open emails or texts from unfamiliar "senders", just delete them. Don't answer the door unless I recognize the person through the peephole. Not even "Who is it?"
