Late night, a wave of calls from +18066163301 has left many scratching their heads. Callers claim to represent CenturyLink or other ISPs, demand remote access, and promise refunds or router updates. Remote‑access requests are a classic red flag, as legitimate providers never ask you to install software or log into your PC without prior scheduling. Verify the claim by hanging up and calling the carrier’s official number, or check your account online. Block the number, enable caller ID filtering, and educate household members about spoofed IDs. Staying skeptical and refusing unsolicited remote support keeps your data safe.
