On-Line Pharmacy Bust
DEA Launches Crackdown On Internet Drug Ring

POSTED: 7:23 am EDT September 22, 2005

WASHINGTON -- It's believed it will make a major dent in the illegal sale of prescription drugs on the Internet.

Drug enforcement agents said they've arrested at least 18 people in a crackdown. In addition, agents have shut down at least 4,600 Web sites that were controlled by the suspects.

Thirteen of the arrests were made in Texas and five in Florida.

In addition, the Drug Enforcement Administration suspended the registrations of 20 doctors and 22 Internet pharmacies in the United States, including Puerto Rico, to stop them from writing or filling prescriptions.

The investigation also involved law enforcement officials from the FBI, Internal Revenue Service, Food and Drug Administration and the U.S. Attorney's Office.

I suspect that many of these websites are run by the same people.

These guys had this coming all along.

Well sometimes that is the only place to find non-aas related pharmaceuticals if one self medicates.

Bingo - no doubt there is a relatively small group of people running a large portion of these sites.

Guess you'll need to contact your respective senate and house representatives if you want to change the laws to make it legal to get all pharmaceuticals without a doctor's prescription. Good luck.

You guys ever do searches on the Internet and wind up on some of these pharmacy sites by mistake? Like they somehow manipulate things to get decent rankings on google and such.

Damn, I'm kind happy they are getting busted just so I don't have to waste my time when searching for something.

Come on not all of them are scammers - the sad thing is that the Feds were probably going after the real ones!

Do you think it will ever come to this for the sales of "research chemicals"?

good maybe now i will stop getting those e-mails about ordering viagra, valium, vicadin,etc..... i don't think this had much to do about gear though... mostly prescription narcotics that are often abused....

You read the interview with Rick Collins about this yet?

Put simply, the government could take action at any time. But they haven't yet and we're all appreciative of that.
