This number called me and when I answered it said in an automated voice that it was the DEA and my social security number was about to be suspended. I called the number back and a man answered in a foreign voice asking me to give him my name and the last 4 of my social security number. I asked him to identify himself and he hung up on me.

He told me his name was Brandon Parker and said he was a Chief Investigative Officer for the DEA. (575) 265-3132 is the number he gave me. He said My social Security number was implicated in a drug smuggling operation in Texas. He wanted me to withdraw everything in my bank account except $200 to send them and that they would hold the money until the investigation is over and I would get it back when my name was cleared.. My dad discovered me talking to them and got on the phone. He told my dad that there was a warrent for my arrest and that they didn’t get the money they would arrest me. My dad said then arrest him and hung up the phone.
