Guys in 2 Days asked to use my phone -Scam?

Yesterday I pulled up at night to park my car and go to the gym. Some guy walked up to my car as I was sitting inside and asked to use my phone to call a cab. (He was a window washer guy)
Today I pulled into the car wash and another guy came around the corner holding a phone and asked if he could use my phone to make a call. He told me his phone was not working.
I never had this happen before and now 2 guys in 2 days. Coincidence?
I gave neither of these guys my phone and told the second guy I didn't have a phone ....which seemed to be the best answer. I don't like to lie but this is the world we live in......
Maybe this is some new "thing". Just putting it out there to be aware. You have to realize our smart phones are expensive and if they can unlock them it is easy money. Plus all kinds of private info on there.
My 2 cents
