According to the DOJ, John Seil Lee was purchasing tadalafil powder from China and making pills he sold as herbal supplements requiring no prescription. Lee is alleged to have sold at least $11 million worth of his fake pills across the United States.

NBC Los Angeles reports that one of the companies prosecuted, Contenda Health, admitted to purchasing 1.4 million fake pills from Lee, which they then resold at retail locations all over the United States.
