Discussion:
What is the name of your state? California
Ok.. not sure if I posted this in the right place but gonna give this a try anyway.
Heres the thing. Im 18 years old.. Im going to explain everything and be 100% honest. I started buying fake bags from China about 5 months ago. I got a really good deal on them from this lady and I resold them on iOffer.com as fake, these people knew what they were getting, I was not trying to resell as authentic. I made money because they are good quality and I made about 50 dollars off each sale. Now, I started getting in over my head and the lady sent me a bunch of blank receipts for the bags. They werent filled out at all, they just had the name of a store on them. They never came to me, she looked up the tracking and said they were stopped to customs. It was around that time that I had a scammer file a chargeback on PayPal for a bunch of bags that I had sent to Canada via Air Letter Post, and since I didnt have a tracking # they got all their money back. I decided to stop everything and got rid of everything and just settled for my 200 dollars a week from working because it was too stressful and the scammer left me with almost nothing.
Now I have a problem. Today I was away at a friend's house and I got a
call from my neighbor.. She said a customs official person went to her
house and was asking for me..!! And if she knew where I was. I went
home and there was a business card in my front door. It says.. '(the persons name), Special Agent.. Department of the Treasury, US Customs
Service, Office of Investigations...' and then it says my name and to
please call.
Now Im really scared out of my mind.. The China lady has sent me lots of packages via EMS in the past so theres probaby records of those packages.. And then theres those blank receipts they took which Im sure is what
this is about. I want to call the person but I have no idea what to say or how to explain this.. They dont know what was in any of those other packages but they have the receipts. Please, somebody help me.. I thought it would be better to get a lawyers advice before calling them.

My response:
Oh, man! You're screwed, blued, and tattooed NOW!
I wonder if you'll like the accommodations at Alcatraz? I hear they're better now since the days of Al Capone.
See ya 'round, kiddo. You're about to get it where the sun don't shine!
I wonder if Mexico is an extradition country?

Answer:
I thought it would be better to get a lawyers advice before calling them. You thought right. You'd better go out and hire one right away...
Or move to Mexico, like IAAL suggested...
Answer:
thanks... but the receipts were sent to me, and blank, so I wouldnt be guilty of anything unless I actually did something with them.. and I didnt. If they wanted to arrest me dont you think they would have come to my house to arrest me or to search my house.. instead of leaving a business card..? Thanks for the advice guys.

My response:
Yeah, that's what arrested people say when they're caught with blank doctor's prescription pads, too.

Yes, you did. You're a criminal and we don't like to help criminals. You deserve whatever your fate has in store.
