The shipment from China listed its contents as masks and a declared value of $500. When inspected, the packaged contained 2,000 counterfeit 3M masks. Due to the number of masks, the domestic value was listed as $2,000. If the counterfeit masks were real, the MSRP would have been $7,000.
The package's final destination was a residence in Austin, Texas.
