So I FE'd on a order from 10toes this morning around 11:00a.m., then 4:00p.m. rolls around and Homeland Security calls me. Some guy with a strong foreign accent was asking if I am the owner of the house I am residing at, and when I answered "no", he said that was all, and hung up the phone to leave me in this horrible state of paranoia. WTF? Has this happened to anyone? Should I be worried? Thanks in advance guys.

This one time i went into a 7-11 to go steal some food and soda. First i went into the aisle and grabbed a snickers. Suddenly i got this feeling of uneasiness as i could feel someone staring at me. As i look across the room, i see a gigantic purple alligator wearing sunglasses eying me, looking pissed. I look away immediately, trying to shuffle out of the aisle as fast as i can while humming the bohemian rhapsody. After rounding the aisle i look around again and the alligator is gone. Now i freak and just run out of the store. I run to my car and as i get there the purple alligator come's over and arrests me and takes me to jail.
That story made as much sense as yours.

There are very few things that didn't happen as much as this.
Homeland security has better things to do then to call around and ask if you are the owner of the house. If they had any concern at all they probably would just drop a smart bomb on your entire neighborhood.
You mad because you FE?

Reminds me of the guy a week or so back that was suspicious he was being CD'ed because the package he received was very well packaged ... LOL.

Canuckboy, you nailed it. I just Google'd the number and found that it was an attempted scam. Talk about timing! Sorry about the false alarm, paranoia clearly got the best of me. And just for the record, I'm not worried about FE'ing early, as he is a very trusted vendor. And I suppose I included some unnecessary info, but I was just aiming to give you all the whole story.

Or call the county clerk's office and request the deed to the house, rather than relying on the word of some person on the phone.
That kind of question is what telemarketers ask.

Yeah but that whole process doesn't seem action-movie enough to fit into the scenario. Find some way to get a few ninjas in there and maybe a Sylvester Stallone cameo and I think we have a deal.
Anyways if you are going to finally nuts up and order don't sulk on it for so long. You start freaking yourself out over little details that mean nothing.
Pretty good learning experience for newer users though who forget that what they are doing does carry SOME risk, even if the good vendors are trying to diminish that risk for them.

I don't need to go into it, but I know for a fact that it was not the US DHS. they don't do a lot of out-calls to civilians, dude. and they wouldn't introduce themselves as with "Homeland Security."
I'm guessing you heard "home" and "security" and got the paranoia bug bad. it was probably a sales call for a home security service like a poster above me posited. if they're not speaking to the owner of the home/property, they have nothing to say to you, so thanks and bye. chill out, bud.

Hahaha omg I love you all here. Some of these post seriously got me luling. ;D ;D
But I second that there's not much relevance between your order and homeland security calling. Although thats fucking weird about what homeland security said, it sounds irrelevant. If it were DEA, yeah maybe I'd be a little more worried.
It's DHS though...
TERRORIST! YOU ORDERING SOME WEED! HANDS UP. GTF DOWN ::) Before you know it you may be the one taking care of big bobs dick down in Guantanamo.
