Smugglers Haul Gold and Fake Viagra!!
South Korean Press reports this morning that S. Korean Prosecutors indicted six people on charges of smuggling fake Viagra and gold bars.
Prosecutors say a man identified as Lim, 67, and five accomplices purchased 160,000 counterfeit tablets of impotence cures Viagra and Cialis and 40 kg of gold bars worth W650 million (US$640,000) in Hong Kong on Jan 11. The gang smuggled the drugs and gold bars from Tianjin, China to Incheon concealed in the restroom of a ferry.
The smugglers then hid the goods in garbage bags and brought them into Korea in a delivery van. The smugglers bought the fake Viagra at W18,000 per bottle in China and sold them for W50,000 to W100,000 in Korea. Prosecutors said the fake pills constitute the single largest haul in history.
Fake Viagra is similar to the genuine product but can cause more severe side effects like blurred vision and dizziness.
"Not tonight, Honey, I've got a headache," now takes on a new meaning.
