I got the same call on 11/23/10 from "Special Agent William Rice". He was very threatening on the phone and caught me off guard. Told me i had 2 warrants for my arrest and that i would be taken into federal custody until my hearing on 12/8/10. I should get a lawyer or pay a fine to have this "taken care of" I was in a panic and didn't even think to call anyone to see if this was real. This jerk even told me the name of the judge who signed off on my court date (Peter Franco). Like a nut i got 4500.00 from the bank and had it sent to Edison Joseph, which in turn lead to another phone call from "Lt william Givens" about how "Rice is nothing but trouble and he has to document the incident,blah blah blah. This jerk proceeded to tell me that the 2nd warrant would need to be dealt with to the tune of 3500.00 to be sent to Franklin Hernandez and someone named Guzman. While all this nonsense went on, an "Eric Morales" from internal affairs kept calling me for weeks telling me that they were doing an evestigation on this Givens character. This guy is relentless, and also goes by the name Frank Diaz from Homeland Security. By the time all this was over they managed to extort 11,000.00 outta me!! My father who is a former cop called the local DEA office and we spoke to a real DEA agent. I have lost just about all of my money to these loosers and they still call posing as US Customs agents, Homeland Security, ect. Last week, Morales called and started to threaten me when i said that he is a real [***]. I always thought i was smart to stuff like this coming from a family of cops, but the scare tactic and the keywords tossed me. I reported the entire situation and saved my voice mails on my cell phone to the real DEA and am now working with them by telling my story. As for my financial situation, i am on disability but will now have to return to work so i do not lose everything that i have worked so hard for. Take it from me; if the DEA wants you, the won't call you to let you know, they just show up. Report these jerks for what they are to the real DEA and maybe one of them may actually be caught.
I received the same call today......my court date has been set and he wanted my attorney to call......or I could pay $950.00 and this would all go away. What's going on? He sounded real, except the telephone was cutting in and out like telephone solicitor's do. Should I worry?
Unfortunetly they got my siste-in-law who just got home from the hospital and did not call us for help. After I heard her on the phone when they called again stating they got the money (1500.00) in US dollars but needed it to be in pesos and to send again or go to jail. She would receive the initial money from US Treasury once this is received and will fax (got her home phone number and cell phone) a waiver to sign. Called DEA, they have no title of Lt and or Director. Baltimore DEA is colsed today and they keep calling, but alas hear my voice now. They call form 410-929-8358, when you call it is a answering machine. They leave threatening messages with a number of 829-275-4095 to call back and it is a number in Dominican Republic. BEWARE!!!!!! DEA, FBI, Local authorities never call and state to send money or to arrest you over a phone. They will come to residence with proper identification and paperwork.

I just receieved a call from Lt William Rice, stating "he was as DEA Agent out of Baltimore, Maryland". He stated "that they confiscated drugs from The Domincan Republic and that I was being investigated by them and he would get my docket and do further information to clear up the matter and that I would have to pay a fine or I would have to appear in court.
I called the DEA Office in Baltimore, Maryland and spoke with Agetn Jim Rosati and he told me not to worry it was a scam and they are trying to find this guy.
