This is a SCAM. A guy who says he is from the DEA will harass you and try to make you PAY a FINE. THIS IS NOT THE DEA.
Don't fall for it.
Tell him to pound salt. Tell him you will have him arrested. Call him back 25 times and harass him.
This scam has been reported already. The fake DEA guy will tell you he is issuing a warrant for your arrest unless you pay a fine right away.
Lets put this to rest. Its a scam pure and simple. People, please disregard and ignore anyone calling and representing themselves as a dea (or any other type of federal or law enforcement agent).
YOU HAVE NOTHING TO FEAR. This is completely fake and NOTHING will happen to you or your family, These jerks have absolutely no power over you whatsoever unless you let them by falling for their nonsense.
If you have the gumption, try and keep them on the line as long as possible. Make-up any information they are requesting from you on the spot. Keep them talking, pretend you are scared and maybe, you will be able to obtain mailing addresses, real phone or fax numbers, or any other information you can use to assist the REAL authorities in apprehending these fools.
If you're not in the mood for any of their games, remind them that impersonating a federal officer or agent is a felony and watch how quickly they will disappear! Rest easy and think to yourself that this type of call is utter BS. Take control and tell these guys where to go!
It is very important to file an FCC complaint anytime you receive calls like this. If enough complaints are registered, eventually these calls may stop.
Below is a list of other (or perhaps the same) DEA scammers. Read through and cross-post these numbers anywhere or anytime these jerks call with a new number.
Now he is claiming to be a District Attorney at 415-852-9456....everyone call this number and leave him nasty messages!!!! He has taken to calling the elderly and scaring them.
