Whats with these guys? I am getting 5 calls a day from them 🙁. Why are they so desperate to get people? I never gave my number to them or requested more info about them so I don't know why I am getting so many calls 🙁

One of your friends ratted you out. Gave up your name and phone number to their recruiter.
Just my $0.02.

Marines, making the marine corps look bad for hundreds of years.
Seriously though, stop saying "wrong number" and start saying "not interested". I know that you feel special, but they don't remember you individually and only have a log book to keep track of people. According to that book you haven't shown disinterest yet.

God Bless the US Coast Guard...9-1-1 of the ocean.
They're usually not as aggressive in their recruiting, and FAR more selective than the other branches.
I enlisted in the USMC during the Vietnam War. They needed people and weren't too selective about who they took. In fact, back then, it was common for judges to say, "5 years in prison...or 3 years in the USMC," and the recruiters didn't care.
(I wasn't one of those...just an example of how non-selective they were)
OP, you have several options.
1) Tell them you're a convicted felon...narcotics is an easy out.
2) Tell them you're not interested. No way, no how. (they'll still call)
3) Tell them you have a disqualifying medical condition. (do your research first)
4) Tell them you're openly homosexual. (may or may not work)
5) Continue doing what you're doing...and they'll continue to pester you.
6) Enlist.
