Think about sending them a Baptism Nullification letter, if they continue to bother you. Since you were once an elder, and therefore a "prominent" member of the congregation, this may be your only option. Of course, if you can move somewhere out of the county or out of the state, that would work, too.
One of many Baptism Nullification postings is found here:

And the "fade-to-black" plan may not work for you... Caller ID helps, but they will forever be out to track you down and convince you of the errors of your ways, unless you cut the cord... Let it be on their heads for what happens after that.
By the way, we did the BN letter, and then ran into our Sister and Brother-In-Law in a parking lot this weekend, some 2.5 months after the letter, and they still spoke to us and did not shun us or shy away, as we expected that they might. Think of yourself as another Rosa Parks, who refuses to sit on the back of the bus... only you refuse to be manipulated by the WTS's two-ways-out manifesto: you leave you are DA'd or DF'd... Were you ever told that before you were baptised? Think about it...
The choice is ultimately yours, but I can say that we are delighted to be out, out, out... and after 5 weeks of being plagued with calls and visits, no one comes by anymore! Yeah!
