I just got this call ... These ppl have some nerve.... I ended up call the FBI and verify if it was this legit.. no! Beware they want $$$ to supposedly clear a crime you didn't commit.
These guys are genuine scumbags, preying on the ill, the elderly and the gullible. Same schtick every time -- Impersonating a DEA " Special Agent," and attempting to extort money (as a "fine") from people who utilize internet pharmacies. They do their best to sound authentic and scare the bejesus out of you, until you hear the scam itself, filtered through their ridiculously thick Dominican accents (the Dominican Republic being the hub of their operation). Try mocking, insulting and/or threatening to call the FBI on them, and see how wuickly they drop the act by swearing at you or simply hanging up.
Here's an actual DEA press release warning consumers not to fall for these idiots' ploy:
Caller claims to be from the "DEA". Accusations of ordering from internet pharmacy followed by request for money to clear matter or "agents will be at your door shortly to arrest you and your wife".
