He is still at it because I got a call last week and this week. Scared the crap out of me. Part of me thought it was a scam and part of me didn't. I'm so glad I researched it and found these websites. He also put me in touch with his director, Richard King. Told me I had to pay $3500 to the Domican Republic by noon or court papers would be submitted and I would probably do 90 days in jail because I have a clean record. How are they able to get this information? Hope they are found and go away for a long time.
I, too, received a phone call today almost identical to bubbahboy's. I didn't answer the call b/c I didn't recognize the number. But I was left a voice mail that stated that Lt. William Rice from the DEA was calling about a drug purchase made in '07-'08 (I never made one then.) and for me to call back ASAP. I did and he informed me that these drugs had been ordered from the Dominican Republic and it was illegal b/c it had been purchased out of this country. I was to appear in Federal court on August 26, or spend time in a Federal prison. But for $950 I could get the charges dropped and the slate wiped clean. I asked where I was to send the money and was told the Dominican Republic. I said "this sounds like a scam." He said "I am a busy man and I don't have time to play games. You need to tell your lawyer to call me." Then he hung up.
I got this message from mr rice on thursday, and was told I must send 2500 to the court in dominican republic to avoid jail and it was being sent to the courts in three hours. sadly, I was so confused and terrified I sent it. they literally called me back within four hours and said it was supposed to be in dominican pesos, and had to be sent again, and they would send a refund check back within ten days. Thought it was all done, and today got another call saying I failed to pay the taxes(they never said to send in pesos, and never said anything about taxes). finally I got suspicious, call the district attys association in washington to verify if this guy was real. they cant advise me, but she googled the number and suggested I go to this site. she also said the number wasnt a listed number for the district atty. I was literally an hour from receiving a money order so I could also send this on. I must be the stupidest person in the world. I have mounds of debt, and this puts me in jepardy of bankruptcy! these [***] must be priosecuted! he is waiting for my confirmation, but since it had been and hour and a half, someone else called back, saying he was in a meeting, did I have a confirmation number. at this time, I replied they said by the end of the day. They just called back again and hung up as I picked it up. its a very clever scam, probably got into some mining of info on the internet if you ever looked at a site sent to you, and are playing the odds you may have done something like this! its terrifying, andI cant believe what a sucker I am. I will be kicking myself for years. at 58, I should have been mature enough to check it all out further. theses bums need to do time in prision. and they ask you to send it to a julio santana joseph.
Yes I did DEA in Washington is what they said, I am going to ignore it for now but if he calls back, I will also get an address of where to send all the all the $$$ LMAO let em sweat
Thank god for this site. I got the same message as everyone else from William Rice, on my voicemail. Nearly had a heart attack. I'm glad I was not home when he called because I probably WOULD have had a heart attack if I had to speak to him.
Thanks everyone!
