You can always tap your phone on a hard surface a few times to wake up the telemarketers.
Or start screaming somewhere near your phone that you're suddenly in the market for a new house or changing your brand of pet food, and just sit back and waste the time of all the marketing and scam calls you get.
I pretended to be brutally murdered while on the phone with a scam caller.
bloody gurgling screams and all.
you'd think they would be more sympathetic but hung up after shouting, "fuk u!"
I bet they angrily pushed their disconnect button and were only left with the ringing in their ear.
I answer all unknown callers with "Thank you for calling State Department of Telephone Fraud Investigations, how may I direct your call?" and they tend to hang up lightning fast and not call back for some reason
