I always begin talking to them about random things as soon as they call. They usually hang up first =(.

I always act as if I can't hear them talking. I keep yelling into the phone "Hello....Hello". After a couple of those they always hang up. Another one I do is if I am watching tv when they call, I put the phone up to the tv so they can listen while I watch.

I had one once who called. He was going off about statistics, and hadn't even told me about his product.
I said "I'm not interested."
"In what?"
*Hang up*
I should've said "In talking to you."
That would've owned him. It's funny because when you first answer they route your call, and you have to wait a few seconds for them to do that.

honestly, how productive are these people in selling products via the phone??? cause it seems to me, that everyone i talk to either just hang up right away when a telemarketer calls, or they just see its a sales call cause they have caller id and never pick up the phone.
