In April, US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) in Indianapolis seized 460 fake Rolex watches that had been imported from Hong Kong.
The shipment was addressed to a residence in Brooklyn, according to a statement released by CBP on May 2. The Rolex watches would have been worth $10.1 million had they been real. Officers picked out the shipment as they recognized the details of the sender, who has a history of fraudulent activity, CBP said.
