Public Service Announcement: Don’t Trust FDA Impersonators . . .
November 17, 2008First, it was the son of the former Nigerian dictator who wanted my bank account information (I’m still waiting for the bank transfer, by the way!). Now, apparently FDA “special agents” are in on the act. In a scam originating out of the Dominican Republic, scammers impersonating FDA personnel are extorting money from unwitting consumers. Don’t be fooled: FDA personnel do not call you on the phone demanding money – they leave that to the Department of Justice.
