It has come to our attention that scammers have begun spoofing the telephone number of the Board of Pharmacy (404) 651-8000.  The caller claims to be associated with the Board or Georgia Drugs and Narcotics Agency and tells the Pharmacist that his/her license has been revoked or that he/she is under investigation due to a complaint and may not speak to any third party.  If you receive a call and are unsure, please call (404) 651-8000 to verify and report the matter.
