By pleading guilty today, Huang admitted that he imported counterfeit Viagra tablets that were manufactured in China. Huang used "maildrops" and friends' addresses to receive the shipments, four of which were intercepted by Customs officials. The four intercepted shipments together contained more than 30,000 tablets. In 2000 and 2001, Huang sold some of the bogus product to an associate, David Srulevitch, who then resold the fake Viagra.
