 Trying to figure this out. I quit getting online meds abouts 2 yrs ago. Used to use sites like EPMG, ERmeds, and some of the other ones, that I think went down, that were owned by the doc out of florida that now is in the big house (you know the story). Well all of a sudden I'm getting these calls. I think they are coming out of the Dominion Republic. Although the turkey calling me has a NY cell #. Here is whats happening. I have gotten 3 phone calls this yr so far. 1. Said, wanted to sell me Hydrocodone. Was calling out of dominion republic. Had to have a western union. Wanted my CC but I refused to give it to them, and said, if I did, I would never see what I ordered. I insisted on doing a COD, jerk said, that he would talk to his boss and call me back. But of course he never did. 2. Call: 2 months later. Another jerk calls me again, from a NY cell phone #. This time, I am insisting on doing a COD, and I told this jerk that I will not do Western Union, or CC, because I know that is what they want, and once they get it, I ain't going to see what I ordered. As they have accomplished their mission and got my CC and thats all they wanted. This jerk was going to sell me 10/660 hydrocodone (amt 200) for 330. I know I would never see this, if he got my cc. Well then because I insisted on a COD, he did tried the western union issue and then said to show the receipt to the Fed Ex person. He almost had me, but it took me a second to figure it out, and I said no way, you're ripping me off, and when are going to understand what I said, and I'll say it again. Either we do COD, or we ain't talking. Again, he hung up and didn't call me again. Or I should say, I hung up on his bad self. 3. Just about 2 weeks ago I get another phone call. This jerko breath is trying to sell me 90 count 10/500 for 550.00. I said, get out of here, you're ripping me off, ane I hung up. The question I had is this. Does anyone know who is doing this. These jerks have my name, phone # and medical info. This is not cool man, and I don't know who they are giving it out to. These jerks are not doc's either. I believe they are working out of the Dominion Republic. Does anyone know who is doing this. Again, I think this came out of some of those sites I used (yrs back), that are closed now. Need some ideas if anyone has them. Thanks

If I were you I would feel fortunate to have received only 3 calls this year! That is nothing compared to the fact that I swear I receive sometimes 4-5 calls a day! Sometimes I receive 4-5 calls all from different people, different numbers on my caller ID which for the most part are all spoof numbers that make it where I can't even block them on my caller list and they sometimes even say they are from the same place....maybe US Healthcare or US pharmacy or something like that. I have about gotten to the point where for the most part I don't even answer my home phone knowing that most people that need to reach me will call my cell phone. It is very aggravating to say the least as I have tried all sorts of things to try and discourage this.....from telling them just take me off your list please I don't take any medications anymore and hanging up, in the beginning I would say no, I did not order and do not want to order and that would work into all sorts of arguments with them telling me yes, I do want and need to order from them....to them swearing that they already have my cc number or they will do cod or just all sorts of bs you would just not believe. I also tried the "this is illegal and I have asked you not to call me so I am contacting the DEA or LE to report you and politely hanging up the phone.....the guy called me right back and when I didn't answer he cursed me (and my mama, LOL) for everything I was worth on my voicemail for about 45 seconds solid!
So, I guess my point is.....they are all scammers and pieces of s.........and honestly just be thankful you do not receive these calls EVERYDAY like I unfortunately do. I also can't remember when I have placed an order and provided a phone number that some con artist has gained access to. I assume they obtained this information from a very old source!
Anyway, just thought I would share all that BS with you, maybe you will feel a little better about your situation! LOL....Good luck, maybe they will eventually leave you alone, although this has gone on with me for at least 6-7 months to no end seeming to be in sight!

Folks: Stay away from the following websites. 724ip.com USAmeds.com goldenmeds.com watsonpharmaceuticals.com I got a call from usameds.com this morning. Their # is 866-490-3308 They wanted 599+ for 90 hydrocodone. I told the caller, that this was excessive, a ripoff and he was out of his mind. Refuse to do COD. I told them only that I would do COD. Well apparently he didn't understand english and needed an intrepreter. He said this conversation is going nowhere, and I said you didn't understand me. You don't understand english, and all you want me for is to rip me off, and we ain't going there. I think these people work off of commission. This is one guess that I have. A couple yrs ago, the internet was going wild with all the perscription drug sites. There were some really good and honest sites out there. Then there was this DR in Florida that was busted for trafficing etc. I think he owned a whole lot of them. All of a sudden, every one went down, and now names are being passed around various websites, and I tbink this is whats happening. Now from I understand, you have to have a face2face before ordering these types of meds. Does anyone else, have any other ideas of what has gone on with these websites.

Need some ideas if anyone has them. Thanks Hello, You are giving them what they need to continue calling you and that is hope... By you even talking to them is giving them the idea that you are a potential scam waiting to happen... Do yourself a favor and either go psycho on them when they call like I had to do or dont answer, however not answering still could put your number on their back burner... You can do a reverse phone number look up and if you have registered to the do not call registry then report the number and the business name they are using, I had to do this on the last morons who were calling and it did stop it... They feed on us so dont let them get ANYTHING... BBB

Ugh. I am sorry you have to deal with this Musician. Eventually they will stop. A "live" customer is what they are looking for. And we all make mistakes. No worries. We are, after all, rather frail, eh? Prone to mishaps.
I just hate that too. After 57 years, I could have perfected SOMETHING, lol. But, alas, no.
Anyway, just don't answer these low lifes. Maybe they are just trying to make a living - I don't care. They are doing it on the backs of CPers.
Be well, my friend.
PS My husband is a classical pianist. I wondered by your name if you were into music. We have a grand piano - it takes up all the space, lol. But, oh, his music can deliver me to heavenly places. I dance. Just an aside.
