Yes, Agt Murphy aka, Dominican Republican scam artist and partner in crime District Attorney Thomas Harrigan (415-852-9456) ARE at it again. Definitely not with the DEA. This freak called an elderly woman in Pasadena and had her scared to death that she was being watched, under surveillance, phone was being tapped, and she had an hour to go the nearest Western Union that THEY gave her the location by her house to wire $3500 to the Dominican Republic - Luis Rodriguez. Thank goodness she actually knew someone with the real DEA and was able to verify the stuff was all a hoax....too bad more people don't just immediately google these names and phone numbers before sending the money. They are very annoying and harassing. However, stand your ground to them and tell them impersonating a federal agent is a felony as well as report it to the DEA at 877-792-2873.
As far as local law enforcement goes, they don't have the resources to investigate, especially if someone is not out any money. However, you can look for a cyber crime task force either with FBI or the Internet Crime Complaint Center. CA has some task forces in the state that specifically work identity theft type crimes like this. You just have to be persistent to find the right one that will actually investigate.
