left a message that he was special agent david brown with the dea and that they had a warrant to search my home and arrest me for purchasing xanax over the internet.  I don't know what kind of scam this is. anyone else know?

I just got the same message.  Same name and number.  Said he had an arrest warrant for purchasing ïllegal drugs".  Anyone know anything?

've rec'd several of these calls.  I gave the number to local  FBI agent. He said first of all, if there is a warrant they are NOT going to call and warn you, they just show up. Duh?!  He said it could be a scam as to try to get you out of your house. While  you are  "interviewing with Det. Dave" they come in and clean out your house.  He said they are SO many things people do to lure you out of your home.

David Brown informed me that he was with the “Drug Enforcement Act and Administration” instead of the “Drug Enforcement Agency”.  In this scam, they state that they have an arrest warrant and want you to send money to pay for the lack of an arrest.  This is illegal as you cannot buy your way out of a crime.
I called back and asked if it was standard procedure for law enforcement to call regarding a warrant (which it is not!).  I then asked where the person received their POST certification, the training that law enforcement go through to be a peace officer.  The person on the other line called me a "[***]" and then hanged up.  

A number to report this fraud to is (877) 792-2873.  This is the DEA line to report extortion and blackmail.
