Bulgarian Police Bust Online Store Offering Counterfeit, Banned Medicines

Bulgarian police forces have captured the creators of a website selling fake or banned medicines.

The buyhealth.eu online store has already been closed but has obviously been relaunched, giving access to an unlimited number of users to dangerous medications.

Over 2000 medicine packs worth more than BGN 150 000 have been seized from the premises, together with a cash sum of BGN 18 000, numerous documents certifying delivery and computer configurations used for the maintenance of the website and for communication with the clients.

The illegal website is supposed to have registered daily sales worth over BGN 1000 without paying taxes, distributing a wide range of counterfeit medicines and health accessories produced by top brands without the knowledge or the consent of the owners of the selling rights.

Preliminary proceedings have been opened against the 25-year old perpetrator and his two aides have been detained for 24 hours.
