Woman Caught Trying to Smuggle 350 Switch Game Cards in Her Bra

Woman Caught Trying to Smuggle 350 Switch Game Cards in Her Bra

We’ve had many stories over the years about stolen Nintendo game cards and hardware, but none of them have been this true.

A woman was trying to leave Hong Kong for a trip to China when customs stopped her due to her nervous nature and ill-fitting top. The woman was taken to a private area for inspection, and that’s when customs officers found 350 Switch game cards stuffed in her bra. The value of the game card collection was just under $10,000.

It seems unlikely that Switch game cards would fall into the category of “restricted” products, but there have certainly been fines. dodged. Furthermore, it seems likely that these game cards were obtained through ill-gotten measures.

Although we do not yet know the legal outcome for this woman, she will likely have to pay a fine that is at least triple what she would have paid if she had chosen the legal route.
