THIS IS A SCAM. Scammers pretend to be law enforcement (police, sheriff, Feds, AG's Office, fake cop agencies with made-up names) and using bought/hacked loan application data to extort money for fictitious crimes or extort personal info.

My mother recieved a call from this number 415-251-3120 yesterday, the man "officer Damen Miller" said he was with the US Department of Customs and that by ordering medicine online 5 years ago there was a warrent out for her arrest because the medicine she ordered was cut with cocaine. After scaring the you know what out of her she asked to speak with a supervisor to verify this was legit. He then told her that he had local cops in our area that could be to her home in 10 minutes and would handcuff her and search her home for cocaine and take her in, and that she would have a $50,000 bond. She then became suspicious and told the man to go ahead and send them, and she would talk to them about it. It's been a half hour and nothing
I got the SAME call from the same man!!!! I was terrified. This is SO wrong. I was told that all charges would be dropped if I would send $2,000.00 via western union to the Dominican Republic. What can we do about this????
