Oh, my grandmother went one better than that - she got so sick of someone persistently ringing her landline & launching into phone conversations without stopping for breath (and refusing to accept they weren't actually ever ringing the person they thought they were), that eventually she put on her best old-school nurse's voice and informed them that [person] had sadly passed away...
She never had phone calls from the caller again ;)
