In Reply to: Help!!! My buddies gear got snagged by U.S. Customs. What will happen to him??? posted by Mail order novice on March 09, 1997 at 14:33:25:
I read about the plight of your buddy! You say he just got a letter
from customs? This is wierd, If they were gonna bust you they'd
be at your door with narcs and all thaty shit! If He just got a letter,
It probably means the customs don't have a case; Tell your buddy not to
panic and do something stupid as he could frag himself. Its also possible,
that the guy in Thailand sent the 1000 Tabs and customs snagged It but
again they don't have a solid case, they maybe only able to connect the 500
Tabs to your bud!
This is a perferct example of why you have to be careful when ordering
anything! Always use an alias, if you can - always use a account like Hotmail
as the cops can't trace it. Also, always demand to whoever your buying from to pay
in cash and use an alias in the letter that you send to your dealer!. As long
as you pay in cash if the heat comes down, either on you or your dealer,
there is no financial transaction rection linking any payments back to you. So If
something was being sent directly to you and it got interceppted by the fuzz,
you could just say you new nothing about it! The dealer must have got a wrong address
or something! When the fuzz do a check (and they will) they will not be able to find
any record of funds being transfered to the individual in question! Without the
proof of financial transaction there is no case against you! (At least in most states
and in Canada!)
