Online pharmacist jailed

Ah ha! I was wondering who the person was that is always pedaling all of those Viagra ads on the Internet. Apparently it was a man named Vineet Chhabra. He is, or should I say “was” a doctor who decided to supplement his lifestyle by selling prescription drugs to anyone with a credit card over the Internet.

Vineet Chhabra ran a series of websites offering Viagra, diet pills and other controlled drugs. Customers had to fill in online questionaires or complete a telephone interview but did not need to see a doctor or submit a prescription, as required under US law. His sister Sabina Faruqui also pleaded guilty and faces one-year probation. Five others, including a doctor and a pharmacist have already pleaded guilty. In total, 11 have been charged as a result of the three-year investigation.
