Woman attempts to smuggle 44 iPhones


A woman traveling through Israel’s Ben-Gurion International Airport was caught with 44 iPhone 4s in her stockings. The extra bulk and weight made for an unnatural gait, which tipped off officials working in customs. According to MSNBC, when officials approached the woman she claimed that she was walking strangely because she was not feeling well. She was asked to go through a full-body scanner which revealed 44 iPhones stuffed into her stockings, hidden by a large flowing skirt. Just a day before the attempted iPhone smuggling, airport officials found eight protected birds on the body of another passenger who went through the full-body scanner.
