FDA Warn Consumers About Phone Scam to Collect Fake Fines
7 Jan 2010
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration is warning the public about criminals posing as FDA special agents and other law enforcement personnel as part of an international extortion scam.
The criminals call the victims -- who in most cases previously purchased drugs over the Internet or via "telepharmacies" -- and identify themselves as FDA special agents or other law enforcement officials.
The criminals inform the victims that purchasing drugs over the Internet or the telephone is illegal, and that law enforcement action will be pursued unless a fine or fee ranging from $100 to $250,000 is paid. Victims often also have fraudulent transactions placed against their credit cards.
The criminals always request the money be sent by wire transfer to a designated location, usually in the Dominican Republic. If victims refuse to send money, they are often threatened with a search of their property, arrest, deportation, physical harm, and or incarceration.
Anyone receiving a telephone call from a person purporting to be an FDA or other law enforcement official who is seeking money to settle a law enforcement action for the illegal purchase of drugs over the Internet should refuse the demand and call the FDA?s Office of Criminal Investigations Metro Washington Field Office at (800) 521-5783 to report the crime.
FDA special agents and other law enforcement officials are not authorized to impose or collect criminal fines. Only a court can take such action, with fines payable to the U.S. Treasury.

Just got this call -- tip off was it was to a prior person who had the same number. Sounds like a scam. Thanks to everyone who posted on this!

This number is a scam. Number is out of LA Area, Huntington Beach. ID'ed themselves as the Financial Crimes Section of the DEA. I asked for the name of the Section Chief. They hung up. Called back under a different number. Confronted them. She said they were a "private enterprice" named the DAE Financial Crimes Section. Told her I'd filed a complaint with DEA L.A. and they should save some of their money for a good defense lawyer. She hung up. Called again and she answered "Domino's Pizza." BTW: DEA LA says the scammmer will ultimately ask you to send money to a bank account offshore...

Same thing here...tried to say he was going to call in federal agents to arrest me for ordering drugs online. When I never ordered anything...Saying it is this one companys word against mine. And he said he wanted to help me and that if I pay the fines then a dismissal paper can be sent to me and then my money can be reimbursed. So don't think so...I went to my police station with this number.

Got a call from 323-319-4556 saying he was investigating pharmacy orders placed by me. I haven't ordered anything... This is the second call I've had like this within the past 4 months.. Very creepy.
