Hey so basically I got a call from someone that said he was an under cover police office doing a sting operation. He claimed that I had messaged pornographic photos of myself to a minor. Which of course I would NEVER! do such a thing. He called me stating that he was on a monitered and recored line and he was calling from the Miami Dade county police department. He was speaking very fast and gave me two options. He said option number 1 you can terminate this call and you will be issued a warrent and you will have you day in court. Or option number two he said you state your first and last name and see if you qualify for a program. I said huh what program?? He said he will run a backround check on you and to see if you have had any prior sex offense and or arrest. I said you guys should have all that information if youre calling me. He said if you terminate this call you will forfit you're offer. I hung up and he still called me back twice which of course I didn't answer. He did give me a first name Nelson. I was scared because I was online message WOMEN. So I dont know if this is real or what? Like why would a "under cover" cop call me??? giving me options over the phone?? PLEASE any help advise or anything information you guys can give me would put my fears to rest. Thank you.

Hey the same thing happened to me to.  I think it's someone who is trying to get money out of you. Be careful

Common scam going around.  You are a victim of an attempted extortion. DO NOT GIVE ANYONE ANY MONEY.   Any real policeman would be guilty of extortion or an attempt at extortion if he or she demanded money to stop an investigation.  This is all phony and a complete scam.

There are several threads on 800notes covering this situation:

See:   803-546-3042
         843-872-2855
         843-701-6287
         803-413-4219

I repeat, this is  a scam and attempted extortion.  Make a police report.   Take a copy of this thread with you.  DO NOT SEND ANYONE ANY MONEY.  If they call you , tell them you know it's a scam and tell him about this site.

Okay thank you very much for you're reply. It sounded so real but I should have known better because he sounded a little like a call center employee ( I know because I have worked in a call center before). I can't imagine how many people they have actually scammed. Thank god I stumbled upon this site because there is absolutely nothing giving any information on these type of scams at all. Thanks again!
