What callers from (206) 672-4861 say

Caller threatened deportation in 24 hours unless I paid a $2,500 "case correction fee" by wire.

Why this matters: calls from this number have appeared in our directory 9 times across 3 distinct user reports between 2025-09-01 and 2026-04-21. Multiple independent reports describing the same script are a strong signal that the number is being used by an organized scam operation rather than a one-off mistake or wrong-number call.

The script associated with this number falls under our Immigration / USCIS category, where the caller pretends to represent the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services / ICE. Read the category page for the broader pattern this fits into and how to verify whether you are actually being contacted by the agency in question.

Where the number is calling from

The caller-ID number reported is (206) 672-4861, with the area code 206 historically assigned to Washington. That does not mean the call physically originates there. Modern voice-over-IP services let scammers display essentially any number on the recipient's caller-ID screen, and the most common pattern is to spoof a number with the same area code as the person being called so the call looks "local." If you've received a call you believe came from this number, do not rely on the displayed caller-ID as evidence of who actually called you.

If this number is yours

It is genuinely possible that the number on this page is a real, legitimately-owned phone line whose caller ID has been spoofed by a scam operation without the owner ever placing a call. If that's the case for you, see our contact page for the process to add a clarifying notice or have the listing removed.

Caller claimed to be from "Federal Immigration Court." Real immigration courts are part of EOIR, not "Federal Immigration Court," and they communicate by mail.

Targeted my elderly father who is a recent citizen. Said his citizenship had been revoked and he needed to pay a fine. Citizenship cannot be revoked by phone.

Caller spoke Spanish, said he was from USCIS and that there was an error in my green card application that would result in deportation unless I paid $2,500 immediately.

What you should do if this number called you

  1. Don't call back. The number may auto-route to an overseas call center. Returning the call confirms a working line.
  2. Block the number. Most modern phones have built-in spam blocking; block the full number, not just the prefix.
  3. Report it to the impersonated agency. File a complaint with the FTC at reportfraud.ftc.gov and, if the call impersonated U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services / ICE, with that agency directly through its official complaint channel.
  4. Tell us. Adding your report helps the next person who searches this number find the warning sooner.
