Don't answer these calls. All you have to do is pick up your phone (or open your cellphone) and they know you are a real person and not just some 10 digit combination their computer is trying. They'll sell your number and you'll start getting more calls. And when you pick those up the process starts all over again. It doesn't matter if you "press one", don't speak, or jump up and down and call them names. They have you and it's too late.
If you don't recognize a phone number then don't pick it up. If it's important they will leave you a message (which is then safe to listen to). If it's not important they won't leave you a message, they'll leave you alone.
