I got a call from Richard Cooper of "Homeland Security" Badge NO. 619128, who had a very strong Indian accent. He told me that several packages with my address had been confiscated and that drugs were being sent to my address, he asked me to confirm this address and my previous address.

He gave me the address of 1205 East 16th Street, El Paso, TX, as the sender's address.

"Richard"asked if I could see he was calling from a 915 area code, I said it said Unknown. He said he'd call me from a 915 number and did, and when I told him it still came up as Unknown he told me I was lying to him. I hung up.

Then I realized it was a scam. Don't be fooled by a badge number. Also, the government will knock on your door, they don't need you to verify your address.

I got a phone call while at work from a person with a what could have possibly been an Indian accent. This person said they were from the US Department of Homeland Security and that a package that was addressed to me was found to have drugs in it. They said a warrant was out for my arrest and the local police department had been notified. They told me that I needed to agree to a plea bargain deal that moment otherwise I’d be arrested at work. I then got very nervous and was somewhat disbelief that this was real. They then transferred me to the local police department or had the local police department supposedly call me . I then caught on and told the police I would call them back and look up their number myself. I think because I was connected to my work WiFi or because the search results were gps based prioritized the same number they gave me came up in the search. I then called 911 and had them transfer me directly to the police department. When I spoke to the police they told me no one by the name I had been given was there. No other person contacted me and the person. With an accent called me back and asked if I had cleared things up and I told them I called the police and there’s no officer with that name. They hung up but I have a weird feeling that they recorded my voice because the things they were trying to get me to say loud and clearly were abnormal. They also obtained consent to record fraudulently because they were obviously not the American government.
