LOS ANGELES (AP) � Federal authorities say a former South Korean law enforcement officer has been arrested for allegedly trying to smuggle nearly 40,000 counterfeit erectile dysfunction pills in his golf bag and luggage.


Quote:
Immigration and Customs Enforcement says the fake Viagra, Cialis and Levitra pills worth more than $700,000 were found when Kil Jun Lee arrived at Los Angeles International Airport from South Korea last month. The 71-year-old was taken into custody Wednesday at his Los Angeles apartment.


They knew the pills in his golf bag were fake because there were no woods.

TSA workers were the first to notice that something was up.

Why are the fake/counterfeit pills worth that much. How do they justify putting the real price on a fake item?

Those pills are probably worth a few cents to pill. Lets be generous and say those pills cost 10cents to produce. He has $4000 worth of merchandise. Not $700,000.

This thread is gold. Please do not taint it with logic.
He must have been really hard up for the money.
