For weeks, I have been receiving incessant calls from this number, which appears as a 'toll-free number' but leaves voicemails claiming to be from Century Link, requesting a callback to a different number that is not registered to Century Link. Despite having my full name, they fail to specify the purpose of their calls.

Expert Opinion
Late night rings from an unknown source have become a nuisance for many. Callers repeatedly claim to be from CenturyLink, often flashing the last four digits of a Social Security number before demanding the full details. This pattern matches a classic scam aimed at harvesting personal data. Hang up immediately, avoid confirming any information, and use your phone’s built‑in block feature or a third‑party app. Report the number to the FTC and your carrier’s fraud department. If you receive a voicemail, treat it as suspicious and do not call back the listed number—verify any legitimate service issues directly through the official CenturyLink website or customer line.
