Tell them politely to take you off their calling list. Keep a list of who calls, and if you get follow ups from the same collectors, tell them you will sue them under the Fair Debt Collections Practices Act if you hear from them again. Another effective method is to have caller ID and just not answer any calls from numbers you aren't familiar with.
