18 Of The Weirdest Smuggling Schemes Ever Caught By Customs

We imagine that the day-to-day work of a customs agent at a busy airport can probably get a bit monotonous, but sometimes, we hear about the discovery of some extraordinarily bizarre or hare-brained scheme that smugglers tried to use to smuggle contraband.

They opened the avocado, made a guacamole with the inner stuff, put in the cocaine and closed it back, may be with some glue...
