Miami Customs Seizes Fifty Pounds Of Counterfeit Viagra.

"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."

Stiff penalty for Australian steroid importer.

A man from the Northern Territory has been fined for importing steroids to help him with erection problems.

Troy Allan Martin Chester did not appear in the Darwin Magistrates Court this morning but his lawyer pleaded guilty on his behalf to importing prohibited steroids and lying on his arrival form to Customs.

The court heard Chester bought 100 methandrastenalone pills from an overseas pharmacy.

Customs found the pills in his bag when he flew into Darwin from Singapore in September last year.

He told officers the pills would help him with his erection problems. Chester also pleaded guilty to importing two illegal laser pointers. His lawyer said they were cheaper overseas and Chester used them for hunting.

He was fined $1500.

Australian customs busts female steroid smuggler on flight from Lebanon.

"An attempt by a 36-year-old woman from South Granville to import steroids into Australia by concealing them in objects within her luggage, including a child's doll, has been stopped by Customs and Border Protection officers.

The woman was stopped by Customs and Border Protection officers when she arrived in Sydney on a flight from Lebanon on Sunday 23 August.

After examining the woman's luggage, items including a doll and a box containing a satellite tuner were x-rayed. The x-ray revealed 500 vials concealed within the two items.

Further examination of the luggage revealed an additional 434 vials of steroids."



No matter how well you hide your steroids in your luggage they will still be visible to a state of the art xray scanner :-(

Australian customs finds steroid ampules hidden in hair gel.

"A 25-year-old Auburn man was stopped and questioned by Customs and Border Protection officers when he arrived at Sydney International Airport on a flight from Lebanon on Thursday.

During a luggage examination, officers x-rayed two commercially packaged saucepans and found anomalies consistent with a concealment. Officers opened the saucepans and each was found to contain a large tub labelled as 'styling gel'.

The two tubs were examined and approximately two hundred vials labelled as either 'Sustanon' or 'Nanbrolone Decanoate' were found suspended in an inert gel substance.

It will be alleged that a bag containing a further 23 vials also labelled as 'Sustanon' was found in the man's possession, along with a container of 23 tablets believed to be Dianabol. Officers also identified suspected prohibited images containing violence on the man's mobile phone."

I think it's safe to assume Australian customs are currently 0n the look out for muscular men arriving from Lebanon and Thailand.

Australian customs busts another steroid smuggler on flight from Bangkok.

"A 35-year-old man from Frankston South was stopped for questioning by Customs and Border Protection when he arrived at Melbourne International Airport on a flight from Bangkok on Wednesday 19 August.

During baggage examinations, officers allegedly located approximately 100 tablets containing illegal performance and image enhancing drugs.

Officers subsequently conducted a frisk search of the man. The search revealed he was concealing 655 vials and 575 tablets containing steroids strapped to his legs underneath tights.

In total, more than 1,200 vials and tablets containing performance and image enhancing drugs were seized."

Looks like this guy was carrying Karachi Sustanon which isn't very good value for money when purchased in Thailand. Again it's a miracle how he passed through Bangkok airport's security which includes a pat down all the way down to your ankles. I suspect the amps were in his hand luggage and he moved them to their unsuccessful hiding place during the flight. Had he not messed up and left a few hundred tabs in his luggage it's unlikley the rest of his stash would have been discovered.

Weird weapon smuggling case ( Bangkok to Australia by post)

Ok I admit this is a little off topic but the idea of guys going on holiday to Thailand and mailing illegal stuff home is a common one amongst AS users.

In this case it looks like the guy spent around six months in Thailand during which he mailed several packages of weapons to his own home. After the first was seized he continued to mail further packages and some of those were also seized. On his return to Australia he was arrested because of the seized packages and found to have even more weapons in his luggage.

Australian charged for possession of imaginery Dbol brand.

Police searched his vehicle allegedly locating more than 500 tablets. The tablets, believed to be ‘Dynatol,’ were seized and the man was charged with unlawful possession of prescription restricted steroids.
