Loaded Da Vinci Code

Australian customs officers found more than an interesting read when they intercepted a copy of the best-selling novel, The Da Vinci Code, sent from overseas.


The book, mailed from London to Sydney, contained twelve vials of performance enhancing anabolic steroids, Australian Customs Services spokesman Simon Latimer said today. The paperback book had four sections cut out from the pages in which the vials were hidden, he said.


Customs officers detected the illegal substance on February 23 and executed a search warrant on a Surry Hills residence. Four more vials of anabolic steroids were allegedly found at the premises during the March 11 raid.


A second package also was intercepted on its way to the same address and 18 more vials of the substance were found.


Mr Latimer said a Surry Hills man faced two charges of importing prohibited imports and one of possessing a prohibited import. He was yet to be summonsed to court. The maximum penalty on each charge is $110,000.


"There are some quite ingenious methods of concealment attempted by people," Mr Latimer said. "I can comment specifically how frequently it happens inside a book but it's been done before.


"It just struck us somewhat ironic that it was done inside The Da Vinci Code." The Da Vinci Code has been on the New York Times Bestseller List since its release in April 2003. It tells a tale of a conspiracy theory, that a secret sect has left a code in several art works which holds the truth about Jesus Christ.


Mr Latimer said all international mail coming into the country was "assessed for potential risk" and then investigated further if found to be suspicious. He could not however comment on why this particular parcel came to the attention of the authorities because he did not want to give the game away to potential offenders.


Justice Minister Chris Ellison said the case served as a strong warning to offenders. "This bust sends a strong reminder that Customs screens 100 per cent of all international mail arriving in Australia," he said.

bro relax the person who did that is not gonna get himself a fine of $220 000. he wont even get in that much trouble either. its was just a good story to print, that they found the gear in this book and the way it was hidden. i myself got caught recently by australian customs and the package in question was way more than 12 amps. as far as bringing gear into australia, DONT DO IT BRO, I REPEAT: DONT DO IT. customs here are the best in the world, and they are getting tighter and tighter bro, i was speaking to customs officer the other who works out at my gym. he told me that anything that arrives in Oz that comes in a bigger than normal size envolope or a box is put through an x-ray. if u can get our source to package the gear in a normal letter size envolope then do it, but u know how sources are you can never truly trust how they will package the gear! i mean in the end its your ass on the line not theirs.

When i was 16 i got in trouble with customs for importing something (legal in US, illegal in AUS), i was immature and ignorant at the time so didnt know what i was doing. Anyway customs caught me i needed to go to a type of customs court. So i got off with a warning. Next time however they told me i would be in a lot of shit.

I want to go on my first cycle (mail order)... but am worried because of my previous problem with customs. Do you think i need to be more cautious because of this?

I think you'd better rethink this, Elite_Fry or Aussie Customs might just boil your potato......and I'm not kidding, nugga!

Australian Customs are notorious for being nosy lil' fucks and the chances of you getting in a pack are slim.

Best of luck, babyFry.

Where there is a will, there is a way. I think there is always some way to get it in there, some sources are quite crafty. Is the risk worth the reward though? That is up to you to decide.

Damn right he is on a "watch list." Not only his name but the address and any address with his name on it in the future. I say it all the time ...... do whatever it takes to remain ANONYMOUS!!! Its really not that hard.

Wonder how many people log into this forum with their real IP? Bad bad bad!! Always use a proxy , especially if you post alot.

I am working on several tutorials to help you guys stay safe. However I will not hold anyones hand, you must do a little legwork.

Don't you think that's a bit paranoid?

Do you really think the Feds have access to IP addy's on this site?

They have no basis for collecting that info, there's no just cause.

My friend showed me a software program he had, as a plain old citizen that pulled up IP's off sites like this. He showed me how to work it - low level ordinary people can check IP's. Heck they hack hushmail.

A buddy of mine just got busted for four bottles and about 50 pills. They got it going through customs, called the local law enforcement (what's going down where I'm from right now is a whole other story) and they took it over. Busted his door in 2 minutes after signing for it. Depends on if the local enforcement wants take the case or not. The DEA is literally walking all over the place where I'm from and they are looking for nothing other than steroids, so of course they jumped all over it. I wouldn't sign for anything.

How can we smuggle in some fresh gear for Elite_Fry without boiling his potato with a CD?

We want the fry to live.....

there's a small airborne rodent that might be able to help you. He used to fly around Australia, but that was a year or 2 ago....

What a pathetic country(talking about the government and a good number of subjects).....No freedom, No Right to bear arms, people getting killed by savages in the country side , wives and children raped and not allowed to protect themselves. We must watch what is going on here so that we dont end up as another Australia!
