Steroids smuggled as ‘Gay Lube Oil’

The extents some people will go to for that extra muscle has reached new levels in Australia. Laws in Australia make it illegal to import, sell, buy and posses any steroids or performance enhancing drugs without the proper licence.

Two men have recently been charged in the Magistrates Court in Brisbane after customs launched separate investigations into steroid smuggling into Australia.

James Groves charged as guilty for  attempting to import steroids on 5 different occasions, while his last attempt the steroids were  put in tins and had the label as nuts.

The new level for steroid smuggling has been set by 25-year-old Clifford James Shawcross from Queensland. Shawcross saw steroids for sale over the internet and attempted to smuggle them in Australia in concealed consignments. Disguised and labelled as “Gay Lube Oil”, the steroids were discovered by customers and initiated proceedings.

The substance, labelled as sexual lubrication, was tested and proven to be illegal performance or image enhancing drugs.

This may seem like a bit of a joke, but believe me, the punishments are far from funny. Shawcross from Queensland was convicted and ordered to pay $3500 in fines and court costs for attempting to import steroids

Let this be an example to those with steroids for sale in Australia. This goes to show how seriously customs treat steroid smuggling.

For those in Australia looking to increase size and strength, it seems as if the consequences of importing steroids are far more serious than expected. Pro Anabolic is a legal alternative that promotes lean muscle and strength gains without the legal implications of steroids. 

The punishment for smuggling steroids into the UK is punishable but the laws on steroids UK differ from Australia in that you are allowed to possess steroids for personal use without the intent of selling or distributing them.
