I also recieved a call from James Smither from Drug Task Force claiming that they had a package that was confiscated. He preceded to say that I purchased pills from overseas in 2005 and that I had two options pay money or fight it in court and that the prosecutor would be issuing a warrant for my arrest. When I asked to speak to his boss he transferred me to a Joe Campbell.
Just got a call from "James Smithers" or "James Miller" a supposed DEA agent. If I bring $4600 to a local Western Union place, in cash, they won't arrest me today for buying pharm from the DR. Also invovled was "David Stone" a US Customs and Border Patrol officer. The local PD said this scam happens every day.
I just received a harrasing phone call from this number. James Miller with the Federal Drug Enforcement. He said I purchased drugs over the internet in 2003. If I forfeit this package that they confiscated then I will pay a fee and it will be removed from my record. Otherwise, DEA will be at my house in ONE HOUR with my arrest and FELONY charges!!!!
THIS IS A SCAM. I have turned them in to the FBI, local law enforcement and now to the FCC!
SCUMBAGS!

I got a call from James Smithers from the Drug Task Force. He left a message and told me the same thing as everyone else reported. I think this scam MAY be tied in with an organization called "The Pharmacy" that sells LEGAL prescription drugs on the internet. Back in 2000 or maybe 1999 I purchased some phentermine (a diet pill) from them. I filled out a health information form and one of their "physicians" prescribed the diet pill for me. I only ordered from them once. It felt really creepy that I could order medicine without ever seeing a real physician and I never felt very secure taking the medication. However, for the last 11 or 12 years they have called me EVERY SINGLE MONTH - sometimes more than once a month wanting to sell me more. Today I got another one of their phone calls and I just hung up without even speaking to them. Within 30 minutes this other message came in. Suspicious? I think so.
