Canada drug dealer offers ‘free samples’ of coke on biz cards
A Canadian drug dealer with an entrepreneurial spirit was busted for passing out “free samples” of cocaine stapled to the back of his business cards, cops said Wednesday.
Seyyed Amir Razavi, 30, was allegedly caught Saturday with more than 50 dime bags of portioned drugs and a mostly empty box of the cards — which were made out under the alias “Alex Lee.”
Cops had been on the hunt for the mysterious Lee since Christmas Eve when they were tipped off to a man offering the cocaine samples to gamblers outside a casino in downtown Calgary, they said in a release.
It took six weeks for officers to gather enough evidence consistent with drug trafficking to formally arrest Razavi after conducting a traffic stop.
The officers executed a search warrant on his nearby home, where they allegedly found almost 60 grams of cocaine in dozens of baggies and the business cards, as well as a digital scale with drug residue and $1,280 in cash.
He was charged with two counts of trafficking a controlled substance, one count of possession for the purpose of trafficking and three counts of possession of proceeds of crime under $5,000.
Razavi was released from custody and will next appear in court Feb. 26.
