There was an excellent documentary on one of the channels about 5 days ago, mainly regarding the illicit trade in “knock offs” of designer mdse. The thing that was really frightening was the ease with which anything could be smuggled into any country because of payoffs at the port of exit an entry to the quasi and real mafioso. The problems are especially rampant in Hong Kong and Naples.

I saw it, too. It was called "Illicit: The Dark Trade" and was actually on PBS, found it about ten minutes into the program while flipping through the channels. It was very good. Maybe they will air it again.
