He failed to deliver

A former tanning shop owner has been jailed for importing cocaine after ordering it in bulk from the dark web.

Under the username 'Seasiders', Withers asked a user known as 'Machismo' how much it would cost for a kilo of cocaine. He was given a price of $22,000 and began discussing the logistics of the sale. Withers made a 'test purchase' of 4g and on May 25 confirmed he had received the goods - although they smelled of soap.

However on June 20, Machismo messaged Withers to say he could not ship the order from Brazil. He said: "I don't know what happened. First time it's happened. I will send as a gift next time." "I've paid you $6k. You keep saying they keep seizing your packages but that's nothing to do with me. You still don't give me a shipping number so it's still in your hands. I'm not here to mess around or rob anyone."
