portwood Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 (edited) ANOTHER way to transact alcohol on-line, this time via twitter:(Twitter link removed)I found it by accident, this douche bag "followed" my twitter account. How long will this one last? Edited December 2, 2013 by callmeox Please don't link to flippers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
callmeox Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 Nobody here can stop them, but we sure can keep from helping them.Placing their link in a SB forum gives cred to their Google search presence. If we don't link here, we're not helping them out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

portwood Posted December 2, 2013 Author Share Posted December 2, 2013 The downfall to all these "business ventures" is they advertise on social media. In the past, illegal buying and selling of alcohol was kept as quiet as possible, word of mouth was sufficient to keep them going.Governments will let most illegal commercial activity go on as long as it is "immaterial". As soon as too many people are doing it and the potential loss of tax revenue is significant they step in and stop it. Best example is internet shopping. Used to be that I could order merchandise (clothing, tools, computer equipment, etc) from the USA and not have to pay any duty/tax, now EVERYTHING gets dinged at the border AND the courier companies add on exorbitant handling fees on top of the taxes!!!
