Had this happen quite a few times, I just tell them it would be a pay cut, so not interested. Recruiters are needy af and try to pigeonhole me into any role that they see fit. (Tech).
interestingly, it wasn't recruiters but the company directly. Anybody remotely familiar with my industry would be able to guess my salary fairly easily based on my employer and my position title (or google the info in a few seconds), so it was just a very strange incident all round.
