Sounds like a scam. I've never known them to call. It's usually a letter or email at best. I would look to see if they call back and leave a message. But other than that, I wouldn't worry about it

But why me, and how they know ( I  got this number a few months ago, and I didn’t call to any strange numbers, but I called uscis a few weeks ago and send request because I was out normal processing time for my ead . Thank you for your answer, I was a little bit scared,  still waiting my interview, and don’t want any problems

Maybe not you specific. It can be a random robot call and just say USCIS to whoever take it.

it was a  person, I asked to repeat several times, and then I said - I didn’t hear you, then she hung up

Robots these days sound an awful lot like people, so yeah, chances are they were automated calls.

 

Same happens a lot with SSN calls telling you something is "wrong". People get scared and end up believing their BS. Never ever give personal details over the phone if something is fishy, especially in this case, when you hadn't even provided the number in your application.

I called uscis, they said they never call and never hung up the phone,  but I’m sure it was a person, because she was angry when I asked to repeat again and again

She was probably mad because she wasn't able to ask you anything your personal or private information. Scammers want to get their information as quick as possible before the other person realizes what's going on. Some of these scammers and robocalls seem so real that it's makes it hard to know who to trust anymore

Also, USCIS handles more than immigration. They also work on Work Authorizations and E-Verifications for ALL employees working in the US. It probably had nothing to do with your application

what information, for example, ssn?  for what?  just wondering.  My husband included me in his credit history, for example someone calls me and I'm under pressure tell them my ssn.  Who will have a problem, me or he too? I mean all his credit cards and history because he included me on his credit history

A SSN can get a scammer a lot more than you think. Open credit cards or take out loans in your name, and ruin your credit score.

Don’t ever give your social security number to someone over the phone.
