That’s what they said Tirz was. Ugh! It was over $10,000! Craziness!
Anyone else receive a Notice of Seizure via certified mail?

@Texansgal Did your vendor attempt a reship yet?
To update - the 2nd letter I received via certified mail, which was referenced in the first letter was actually identical to the first letter. It was the same packet of several pages with the multiple options you can choose. I can only speculate why even bother sending this via certified mail in addition to the first one as typically in the past I have not heard of this practice.
Also a word of caution. I know there are many anecdotes of people ordering things like HGH & steroids, having them seized multiple times, and no issue but some thoughts on why things might be different in the future if only temporarily.
Pharma knows Chinese UGL is undercutting their business and does not like it. They've already pressured the govt to shutdown compounding so the govt has a wealthy supporter pressuring to target peptides. This goes hand in hand with targeting China for various issues including trade and fent / synthetic drug manufacturing. It may be in the interest of the current administration to start producing not just seizures but charges to support their argument that can be waved about in the media. Legal representation for a federal trial can cost 10's of thousands easily and best case you come out clean.

Even for HGH and steroids, possession would be a minor offense compared to distribution. On the FDA's website, the only criminal cases I see are of in-person distribution (to a number of people) and shipping to a lot of people.

I retired from Federal Law Enforcement less than 10 years ago. I can assure you that the US government does not have the resources to prosecute people who are purchasing small amounts of non-controlled substances, like GLP-1s and HGH. They have to focus on things that have greater impacts on Public Safety and they generally base decisions to prosecute on the quantity, scale of activity and the potential harm the substance can cause. Then they still have the burden of proof. Investigations and prosecutions are very expensive.
If you are ordering a kit of Tirzepatide, you are not much of a threat to society. Even if you are ordering a cycle or two worth of anabolics, which are a Schedule III drug, they are not all that concerned. Hell, I know Cops and Agents to this very day that take steroids. Now, if you order anabolics and share them with your buddy at the gym you have a whole other problem.
I would say that if something is not covered by the Controlled Substance Act then the only thing you need to really worry about is losing your investment. If you are dumb enough to get involved in distribution, then shame on you.
