Did you know that of the $809.55 billion dollars in contraband throughout the world, marijuana accounts for $141.80 billion or that counterfeit tech is a close second at $100 billion? Or that diamond smuggling nets only $280 million? Neither did I.
But thanks to writer Kieran Shea, who links to the Havocscope Black Market Indexes, now I do.
Havocscope is a wealth of fun facts. Like that 25% of child sex tourists are from the U.S., or that the Italian Mafia makes $17 billion a year from loansharking.
Next time you're at a cocktail party make sure to bring up that you can make upwards of $400K on just two pounds of illegal bear bile.
Trust me, you'll be a big hit.
