Yep, I got scammed similarly, too. The details are just slightly changed from what Markos experienced, but the result was the same--a complete scam. My doctor won't prescribe hydrocodone for my "severe degenerative disk disease" because he's afraid he'll get in trouble with the feds. So I found the "liveagaincoach" site, and after sending the $200 to "Dr. Emega" via Western Union for #50 pills, I got a somewhat legit shipping notice from "Verzek Shipping" saying the package was held up in Las Vegas for a "Refundable Insurance Deposit." I sent a screenshot to the kind doctor asking what I should do, if anything. He wrote back the following (Misspellings and bad grammar are his):
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
"Sorry to inform you that you have to make a deposit premium of 310 dollars [versus Markos's $150] which is fully refundable. This is because your package is descrete and it violates the law of your area. Normal if it were an item say a "sex toy" we could have wave it by authorising them to search it. Now it's risky because it's a drug without prescription liscens, This is our findings. we actually didn't know your state law limits this so we urge you to pay again just to cover up everything and your premium will be given back to you upon the arrival of your package.
I hope you understand. Best regards."

I wish I had listened to Markos! When I sent a copy of Markos's warning to the "doctor" before I even sent him my $200, he wrote back:
