"A shipment believed to contain 21,600 Viagra pills turned out to be counterfeit, U.S. Customs & Border Protection officials said.
The 50-pound shipment was coming from India and in transit to another country when officials intercepted it at Miami International Airport on Monday. Samples were taken to a CBP specialist who determined that they were not consistent with the authentic Viagra.
"We don't believe it was meant for the United States," said Jose Castellanos, chief with the U.S. Customs & Border Protection. "It has happened in the past, but this was a larger shipment than we have usually found. It's a good amount of contraband."
