As a practice, by default all the extensions you expose on the allowguest
mode should lead inbound to your asterisk and should never pick any
outbound trunk and dial out.

Your best option is to remove all outbound extensions from the default
context, move them to default2 and set default extensions as honeypot to
play monkeys tts wave file or reject the call.
