Creepy phone calls? (asking for phone #, social security?)?

Question

Has anyone gotten these creepy phone calls of people asking for your social security number, other phone #, etc.
These people aren't even good at conning, they are really rude and demanding. The least they could do is act natural.

These illicit callings are really annoying, do they have anything better to do.
It is a gamble for them, telling them they want to speak to my brother, saying he owes money, when I don't have one...
They call asking for money and stuff.
You know it's fake because when you ask for their number they avoid it, and insist on yours.
Ahhhhhh, what do I do, without going through all the trouble...
Hope I'm not the only one...
Thanks in advance... ^_^
