Left message that I returned and very convincingly explained I was a suspect of a special DEA investigation looking into purchases of illegal medications. Explained that it was very serious and agents were en route to my office where they had an arrest warrant for me. Kept explaining that it was a very serious situation and I was going to jail for 24-36 months. They basically started saying that with my clean record it is an unfortunate situation and that they might be able to do something. It started getting a little fishy but they had radios going on in the background in which they were talking to someone saying they had the suspect on the phone who had called voluntarily so please call the field agents to hold off. Put me on hold for a minute at which point I looked up the phone number and saw it was listed on several scam sites. I played along a little further wondering how this was going to turn into a request for money. The caller, who should going to acting school as I give him a 8 out of 10, who up until the end was very convincing but then said there was a way for me to have the arrest warrant revoked if I was willing to deal with the process quickly. Finally they got to the gist of the call and said that if I submitted payment in the amount of $910 they would stop the entire process and after a very convincing act they then asked me to go and purchase pre-paid money cards of all things. I just laughed and said nice try and started to hang up and they stated yelling that the 'suspect was on the run and not being cooperative and expect agents any minute'. I hung up and they called back a couple times but didn't leave any messages. Totally [***] who almost ruined my weekend.
I got the same call as Not so gullable. It was almost exactly the same. I have reported this to the DEA and pray that they can catch this SOB and throw his [***] in prison for a long time.
