I've asked them for the business name; they usually hang up.
I've tried pressing the phone dial keys as they tried to speak to me.
My current tactic is to get the robocall, press the number that gets me to a live operator, then yell "**** OFF" into the phone as they are speaking.
But they still keep calling.

Every time you answer, you are confirming this a working number. This in turn places you on their list, and everyone they sell it to.
If you had caller Id, you could save the numbers to your phone. Then when they call, play the "dunno doo, this number has been disconnected" from a tape recorder. Since most are robo dialed, this flag your number as a bad number.
