I have gotten two calls from a man who says he is a Special Agent named Steven Novak from the DEA and that I must call him immediately. Called back after reading the scams I read on another site. He was apparently in a meeting. If he calls back he has something coming is all I have to say. He used the # 202-239-8343 at ext. 1131
Interesting.....I recieve3d 2 calls as well however, when I returned the call on 202-239-8343 I got "this number is no longer in service. Initially I was a bit scared but given the amount of scams out there, did my homework this time and was quite pleased to see all the feedback regarding this scam so thank you all for reporting it for the rest of us to read.
Note the 202 area code. Criminals probably do enough homework of their own and use the DC area code to appear legitimate and get a better chance at pilfering your money. The calls most likely are coming from India or Pakistan. Any random calls from the 202 area code are best avoided entirely as they're synonymous with con artists.
Heh - just called them back via Skype for the hell of it. Asked the (Indian) man if his mother knew he was a thief. He said "Yes, of course!". I said "Well, I'm sure she's very proud of you!" and hung up.
