I got the exact same call for the second time and I told to come on over because I had something for her. She just hung up. Makes me so angry now.

All these callers are criminals....if the DEA wants you they don't call ahead...they just come and get you. Best response i saw given to these jerks what a guy who told them "he wanted to pay double the fine because he planned to more drugs in the future" ....he just screwed around with them. Another tool if they bother you is to blast them with an air horn. One woman sang songs to them; and kept calling them back, singing songs...really bad singing and really bad songs.....or just don't answer.

This scam has been going on for years -- the sad thing, it's been going on so long they are scaring the hell out of people and extorting money. Please do not send them money; hang up on them -- they are accessories to manslaughter (yes, people have been so scared they have committed suicide). DO NOT FALL FOR THIS SCAM. They use real agents names, majic jack numbers so they appear official...it's all a scam people....the DEA does not do business this way.
This is why people should ignore, and block strange numbers no matter how real they look. Even if the spoofing cowards leave a voice mail just delete it. Don't pay attention to it.
I had the same call...I read that one woman paid them $20,000 because she was so afraid they would search her home and she knew her son had done drugs...she ended up killing herself over it. So sad....these scum suckers should be prosecuted if possible. I know they are not calling from the US and they use a magic jack so it can look like they are calling from your city. My guy said his name was Randy Miller and he had me write down his badge number and everything!
Quote: "What I did was call Moneygram and briefed them on the nature of my having to send the money and they refused to. They said that if I do not have a personal relationship with the person I am sending the money to, that they will not send it."
Damn! Good for them! Nice to see somebody out there is actually helping people who are being victimized by these crooks. Just wish the DEA guys could find these creeps in the Dominican Republic or wherever they are and administer a little "street justice."

Actually....the dead giveaway is the fact that most of the callers are not American. I had a message from a person of Latino descent.....which had trouble speaking English. Also, my caller ID said it was a Skype call........which should send up red flags right away.
These guys never get it right. The DEA doesn't have detectives, they are all "special agents."

HAHA...I received a threatening phone call that went to voice mail while in surgery..stating DEA had a warrant for my arrest and a search warrant for my house and to call back immediately. Imagine her shock today when she finds out she was calling the wife of a police chief...and she is a local caller. hmm. DEA has been notified and are handling the situation.

Well..........now you can add the name(s): Dennis Whitehouse and Savana Perdida.
Whitehouse called me on 12/20/2012 and identified himself as a DEA and/or FDA Agent and ref. the same isues above. He even told me all my phones are being wire-tapped as we speak and will be wiretapped for some time now.
He gives me his badge number and a case number. He says I have to West. Union money over the next hour equalling $2,500.00 or the Cops will show up, have a search warrant and arrest me. He even stated I would need to fly to the Dominion Republic the next day because I am wanted for arrest and jail in the Dominion Republic. This was very scarry and caused me anxiety attacks all night until I came across this web site.
He says I have a illegal/narcotic product they are holding as proof and evidence for my arrest in the Dom. Rep. which was supposed t be shipped to my house
I told him all could pay at this time saw $50.00 , which I did via west. union. Dennis Whitehouse phone number is:619-906-7090 ext: 211. He wanted me to send it to: Savava Perdida / Santo Domingo Norte /Dominion Republic. I complied because I thought I was a victum of identy theft and maybe this was valid........and i was scared and having anxiety attacks at that time.
I could even hear Police scanners going off in the background!!! Now, how do I report this guy and his accomplish.....I have no idea. please advise. He claims his badge number is : N79519, case number: NCIC#W516894237 and his phone number is 619-906-7090. Another phone number is 603-689-9697.....can't read my writing, this number might be:603-689-9692.
Thanks and please try to steer me in the right direction of who I should contact or reslove this "SCAM".
I have been prank calling them everyday I had one guy on the phone for fifteen minutes giving him the most bogus info. It's funny how desperate they are to steal your money that their tolerance for B.S. is incredibly high.

I got one too. Online Rx that I ordered. I admit it I did but have a real script from my doctor, LOL
I call the number back and a different dude answers. So after reading this forum, I decide to play along and ask him how do I pay the fine I was quoted that I had my credit card ready to pay. I could hear my guy in the back ground with his distinctive voice. A mr. Barbrough. Or maybe a husky woman, Its California after all. The dude on the phone is clue less and said I called Chop Chop! Not very DEA to me. (760) 705-1774.
Is personating a DEA agent okay in this land of ours?
