Agreed, but then they often ring back.

I prefer to put on an "official" voice and quickly say "Password please"
and/or "You shouldn't be calling here and a note has been made of your
location. Don't do it again! Goodbye"

Works for me and I'm seldom recalled. Makes me I feel better too :-)

My variation is along the lines of

"Armed Response Unit, what is the deployment location?"
