Usually ignore unknown numbers, but answered today. Gruff voice identified himself as working for some contracting company, following up on an estimate from a few months ago. He just talked his way thru his whole spiel, how they were doing a special, and waiting had saved me 30%, blah blah blah. When I finally got a word in, I told him he was mistaken, I had no projects in the works and no previous contact with their company. He responded that he was working from someone else's notes, why would he make this up? I then got a little snarky and asked, "Why would a salesman make something up?" to which he responded, "I think the problem is you're a f**king retard", at which point I just hung up the phone.
