Remember, we live in America. Our judicial system requires due process. The DEA would NEVER require you to pay money without a proceeding to establish guilt. Do not send these idiots money. this is extortion and should be reported
Hmmm James Collins...Jim Morris? See a pattern? And you mean cooperate not colaberate. Clearly you are terrible at scamming people AND the english language. BTW Jame Collins you were right about one thing...don't mess with the DEA because impersonating a federal agent is a federal offense. You will be subject to a stay in a nice cell in federal prison and then deportation. Adios!
One last thing...this scam has been played for a couple years. What these idiots don't get is that the Department of Justice is totally on to them. They were on tothem in 2010 and still are in 2012. They don't take kindly to people impersonating federal agents and will keep on top of this until they are caught.
Just got call from these jerks claiming to be DEA and that I bought drugs on-line. Don't sound like they know anything. Told him to get lost and he called back.
more than likely ( 99 % ) the " 202" area code fraud scams going around !!!
some are landlines...many are cell phones...some are spoofed and linked to offshore foreign countries !!!!
we've traced back most of these numbers to offshore foreign call centers in INDIA / THAILAND ETC....

** mysteriously call to claim they have several thousand of dollars to send you....just provide you bank account and credit card right away etc etc.........scam scam
several of these are the usual long ongoing scams such as : you have won a free walmart / bestbuy gift card....or you have won a free ipad etc......all long ongoing scams
