Ask them a question, "Who's calling, please"? When they ask you a question instead, "Is this mrs. So and So ask them again . Keep repeating this cycle till they give you a straight answer or hang up. Once they answer you can tell them politly your not interested.Then hang up.

If their calling your house then good manners require they say who they are.
