An unexpected call that appears to come from USCIS may not actually be from USCIS.
USCIS has received reports of scammers impersonating the agency and other immigration-related organizations. These callers may ask about your immigration case, request personal or financial information, or even use technology to make their caller ID appear legitimate.
Be especially cautious if someone pressures you to act immediately or threatens negative consequences if you don’t comply.
If something doesn’t feel right, don’t provide sensitive information over the phone. Hang up and contact USCIS through official channels to verify whether the communication is legitimate.
If you believe you’ve been targeted by an immigration-related scam, report the incident through the appropriate fraud reporting channels.
