Absolutely a scam. I got a call from "Larry" as well. So I call the number back and "all agents are currently busy". These people have nothing better to do than sit on their lazy [***] and attempt to scam people by threatening them with arrest. Don't fall for this it is a bunch of BS. You don't get arrested over the phone folks.
They have yet to get me. Scam artists! They are full of it. I called the Police and the real DEA and they told me that I should call them if anyone shows up because there is not warrant for my arrest. Beware of Larry Thompson or Eric Murphy 202-506-9520
Just got off the phone with my Federal Defense Attorney and the LAPD-Pacific Division. They are coming to get you!!! And God will be collecting from you BIG TIME!!!!
Hey Maureen,
My name is Special Agent Mike O'Hare with the DEA.
I will be calling you in 2 days. In the mean time I want you to go to the bank and withdrawl $500.00.
Now listen Maureen as you know we have your husband and if you don't want your kids to be left without either parent you'll do as I say.
Regards,
Special Agent Mike O'Hare

This is a true scam. As I was talking to the gentleman that said he was Larry Thompson...he spelled his name back to me and miss spelled it. There was talking in the back ground correcting his spelling. Fishy...yes! He gave a badge number and also a DEA unit number which was narcotics unit division 78.
Please do not be scammed!!! If it were a real legal issue...you would have received a letter first to appear in court.
