It's just better to ignore it, letting them waste the effort for no attention on your behalf. Responding provokes, which usually translates to them doubling their efforts to break through.

At those phone numbers to an ignore list so your phone blocks them.

But it's good to see the fire in your spirit. Give 'me hell, Cha!
