Man Smuggles 94 iPhones Over Chinese Border- Iris Hughey p.5

A man was arrested at the Chinese border for attempting to smuggle 94 iPhones into China. The man, a Hong Kong citizen, had iPhone 6 and 6+s strapped around his thighs, torso, calves, and crotch by using a combination of plastic bags and masking tape. The phones are now being held by customs officials. Although the newest iPhones have been available in China for months, smuggling stolen phones is common because of their cheaper prices.

I wanted to include a picture from the article because I almost didn't believe that someonce could (almost) smuggle 94 iPhones on their person to a different country (the picture is below). I can't help but also wonder what other kinds of crazy things people will/have successfully smuggled into another country.

  1. It really does make you wonder what other crazy things people will try to do.
