Fired for having the same name as another employee!

I was hired by a billion dollar company as a financial analyst. It seems that one of the corporate officers had the exact same name as I, and I kept getting many of the phone calls intended for him. He was determined to have me fired, and he put the word out to several people to "find some reason" to fire me. I lasted a matter of months.
