Its clearly bullshit, but lets just pretend its real for a second.
Why wouldn't you just let them issue the warrant anyway?

someone I know closely, years ago, got a few phone calls from someone claiming to be with XXXX county narcotics. Saying they had him for drug sales and if he wanted to rat out a few people he would be good.
We figured it was obvious bullshit. A few weeks to a month went by then they showed up at his work looking for him suited and booted.
Small town cops are idiots... this could be real.

Yes, Law enforcement serves warrants over text message now. If you put your nuts in a garbage disposal before coming in though, you have solid grounds for an insanity defense.

well... you could always drive your ass down to the police station at 9 tomorrow and say "i'm here. what's up?" if they don't recognize you, you're clear.

It is 100% NOT LE.
1.) Under no circumstance would they EVER text you as a method of contact, regarding ANYTHING.
2.) Why the fuck would they tip you off that they will be issuing a warrant, giving you time to clean house?
This is complete bullshit, a friend is fucking with you, OR (if you are a dealer), a competitor is trying to get you to hand yourself in.

Someone is trying to fuck with you.
LE aren't going to give you advance warning so that you can clean house and lawyer up. If LE suspect you of dealing, they will be through your door before you have time to even think.

Send a text from a burner asking for a hookup or something. Or call from a burner. I'd they don't pick up with "Hello this is officer/agent/etc" then it's someone fucking with you.

lol wat. call them and ask them what they are talking about.
have you been dealing? Have you been dealing to random people?
If so, yeah, it could be real.
This seems like a stupid ass way to contact you and get you caught...
Ignore that shit. No LEO will send you a text lol
