Possible account hack

I was recently approached by a colleague to say that she saw me on one of her calls.  However, I wasn't on this call.  She sent me a screenshot of the participants.  My login name is Lynn DeBuhr Johnson, and the person logged in was Lynn DeBuhr.  It's a different enough name that we are concerned my account has been hacked. 

 

I have attached the screenshot she sent me of that part of the participants list.

    Someone could be acting like you, or just a similar name. I'm assuming the former. It is easy to make your name another person's name or whatever name you want. I also notice from the screenshot the person is a Guest. To be safe, change your password, but what you described and the screenshot, I think someone just used your name, but not your Zoom account. To be safe, change your password.

    Thank you for this!  I will change the password and see what happens.
