In Krasnoyarsk, a local resident found an advertisement for a drug store on a box of dried apricots, reports the telegram channel “Borus. People".
A channel subscriber sent a photo of a box of dried apricots with a QR code printed on it, allegedly leading to the website of a store with prohibited substances.

Late last year, Philip Paul, 25, from south-east London, was sentenced to three years in prison after he accidentally sent a message to a police officer advertising drug sales. Back then it was all about crack and heroin.
UK law enforcement said that the policeman received this message because Paul had made a mistake in just one digit in his phone number. During a search, they found a package of crack cocaine, three bags of heroin and two more bags of cannabis. The young man pleaded guilty to involvement in the supply of drugs and possession of marijuana.
