I received a call from 806-494-5963 and was informed I would go to jail if I didn't get a "green Dot Money Pack" for $475.

I received voice mail from 806-494-5963 saying that he needed to talk to me regarding an investigation by "The Drug Enforcement Administration of the United States." The caller had poor English, used my first name, and said I needed to call back and give them my address. How funny. I almost did it just to jack with them but decided to let it go. Needless to say, if a gov agency had my first name and ph#, and thought I could help with an investigation, they would know my address before giving out so much (bogus) information on a voice mail message.

I received the same call from the same number on the exact same date. I was told I was under investigation from the DEA and that there was a warrant being issued for my arrest and that I'd be apprehended that day. Interestingly enough, the number is located in Plainview, TX....and there is NO DEA office in that area. I called the El Paso and Houston offices....the only ones in Texas and they were closed for Veteran's Day.  Hmmmmmmmm............but a non-existant federal office was open on a national holiday. Give me a break. Yes, I was concerned, but after speaking with a police friend and doing some online research, it was clear that the whole call was a hoax. Strange thing, the man did have my address, but was apparently investigating an issue from 2007!  Sad thing is, I did answer the call and let that prankster scare me. Don't let it happen to you.

Got a call from this number wanting $300, for them to not arrest me because I went to the doctor in Houston.  Total [***]!!! When I told him there are complaints about him on the internet and he immediately hung up. SCAM!!!!!

OMG, I just got a call from this number this morning, Special Agent Robert Champion from the Drug Enforcement Administration.  He needed me to call him back concerning an illegal black market drug operation.  So scared out of my wits I returned the call, he proceeded to tell me that because of my involvement with this "operation" I could face up to 36 months in jail, under violation of Health and Safety Code Title 6, Chapter 478.  He said Chapter 478, many times, I asked him to repeat it because I was writing all of this down.  The Texas Controlled Substance Act is actually Title 6, Chapter 481.  He didn't even know the Chapter #.  He did not ask for my address, or any money, but did tell me there would be a warrant issued for my arrest and I could be apprehended as early as within the hour and that I should get a lawyer.  Glad I found this site.  Why do people do these things?
