Authorities have seized as many as, 5840 graphics cards worth 3M USD

Chinese Customs are at it again. Yesterday, in the last few days Chinese
custom officers have stopped a large import of XFX Radeon RX graphics cards,
which were mislabeled to avoid high import tax. Authorities have seized as
many as, 5840 graphics cards worth 3M USD. But it is not just AMD products
that are being illegally imported into the country.

Authorities have now reported on a man carrying as many as 160 processors,
mainly Intel 11th Gen and 12th Gen Core CPUs. This "Walking CPU" or
"CPU-Man" has tried to evade custom by not declaring any products that were
attached to his body. However, his abnormal walking posture has caught
officers attention.
