Today you are an ordinary driver, and tomorrow you are transporting goods from drug dealers across the entire country... In this topic, you will learn who the carriers are, who becomes one, how much they earn, why you should not become one of them, and, finally, how long they live.
When we see the news about drug trafficking, we usually remember street dealers from disadvantaged areas or stash men with backpacks, and it may seem that this entire criminal business is based on such ordinary workers who carefully shove illegal substances into flower beds or supply their clients literally from hand to hand. But this is not so. The drug business is precisely a business. And like any other business, it is based on logistics. And the carrier is the most important unit in this strategy.
In this topic, you will learn who the carriers are, who becomes one, how much they earn, why you should not become one of them, and, finally, you will learn how long they live. Listen carefully, it will be entertaining. So, the carrier is the same Mule, like in American movies, who works for the drug mafia.
He carries their cargo in a secret compartment of the trunk and tensely watches the road, dreaming of not seeing the police. Almost like in the 2018 film of the same name with Clint Eastwood, only not at all cinematic. However, the fate of the carrier is often really like a film, a black comedy for morons, but we will get to that. In the meantime, an important fact for understanding. The Federal Drug Control Service, that is, the Federal Drug Control Service, believes that 90% of prohibited substances in Russia are of foreign origin.
Of course, these statistics do not include any krokodil or mephedrone, which drug addicts themselves make according to prescriptions from the Internet for themselves and their friends. That is, we are talking specifically about the illegal trafficking of those substances that are sold and bought. In addition, these statistics can be very distorted, as is often the case with official data from Russian officials.
However, the number that has been publicly stated is exactly 90%. For example, cocaine goes through port cities with cargo from South America, and almost all kerosene comes from Afghanistan and post-Soviet Central Asia. And even synthetic drugs come mainly from large drug labs in the countries of Southeast Asia and Europe. At the same time, one should not think that local drug labs do not need the services of a carrier. They also have their own supply chains that cover several regions, and not necessarily neighboring ones.
That is, without a carrier, this business literally won’t go. And it may seem that drug business owners should value and protect such valuable characters, or at least pay them well. However, the logic here is completely different, and carriers are one of the most unfortunate heroes of the criminal world. The story of each carrier begins with banal problems - loans, debts, lack of work. By the way, unlike stash men, drug addicts rarely take on this role.
But almost all carriers have their own or company transport, which can be used to transport the goods. Sometimes, but very rarely, you can find exotic ones, like couriers who transport substances in bags or directly on themselves, while crossing the country on buses, taxis or hitchhiking. But this is a super ineffective option for dealers, because such horseless couriers can only transport limited quantities, and are exposed to much greater risks. Most often, these are people from Central Asia who do not understand that bus stations are almost always teeming with police and surveillance cameras, and a taxi app will allow you to track any strange route.
Not to mention that most taxi drivers will not take a suspicious character. However, taxis are a separate topic altogether. It is worth saying right away that there are many taxi drivers among the carriers themselves. Their percentage is not so great, but still, these are not isolated cases. Unlike truck drivers and bus drivers who receive a good salary by CIS standards, a taxi driver can work almost at zero.
At the same time, a taxi driver constantly spends money on fuel and spare parts, not to mention the fact that any car is not eternal and simply wears out from regular trips, and any taxi driver can easily go into a global minus, getting into a small accident. Therefore, those taxi drivers who for some reason cannot or do not want to become taxi drivers may be faced with an offer to secretly transport goods from point A to point B and agree to it.
But still, as a rule, the main character of such stories is not a taxi driver, but a person who, on the one hand, has a car, and on the other hand, has no job. It is these characters who most often appear in reports about the capture of carriers with large consignments of drugs. Scenarios for getting into the ranks of carriers may differ. A classic of the genre. Through personal acquaintance, a person connected with drug dealers offers his acquaintance the opportunity to earn money by delivering goods. This scenario is unsafe for the drug business, because there is a risk that the caught carrier will name specific people in the inheritance.
A more popular scenario is when a potential carrier finds dealers themselves through an ad like “need a person with a personal car, salary 50 thousand rubles a week.” Here, it would seem, everything is obvious, but if such a drug business does not have a good roof among the authorities, then anyone can respond to such an ad - from the police to drug fighters. Therefore, the most popular option for finding a carrier now looks like this. A person, without any special skills, looks for a job for a long time and starts leaving applications on the walls of VKontakte groups or, for example, in the comments on Instagram.
Sooner or later, a recruiter-dealer or curator contacts such a person. By the way, there is already a video about curators on the channel, it has gained almost 300 thousand views, I advise you to watch it. So, the recruiter's page may have an absolutely normal appearance, but it is just someone's hacked account. The owner has not logged in for a long time or lost access through phishing sites, or even died in the biological sense of the word. By the way, sometimes the recruiter's page can look quite suspicious.
For example, a girl named Sergey or a completely empty page. One way or another, recruiters ask approximately the same questions. Gender, age, city, availability of a car, and so on. If the candidate is suitable based on the main criteria, he is offered to continue communication in Telegram. There, he communicates either with a curator or with a bot, which answers questions and gives instructions on what to do and how to behave. This is how each new story begins.
The standard example of a translator is the life of Dmitry Egorov from St. Petersburg, an interview with whom appeared on YouTube in the spring of 23. This man worked as a bus driver in St. Petersburg, received a beggarly salary of 13-15 thousand rubles a month. He got into debt and, trying to earn some money, became a translator. They developed him for a long time, monitored his trips, and then took him when he was carrying half a kilo of various chemicals. Egorov received six years in prison and, of course, wanted to be released as soon as possible. He joined the Wagner PMC and went to war against Ukraine.
He miraculously survived the battles near Bakhmut and surrendered. Egorov's story ended almost with a happy ending. He initially received a short sentence and was able to survive the Bakhmut meat grinder, unlike thousands of other carriers who died, became disabled or continue to rot VTK. Such cases are a vivid reminder that drug-related cases should not be acted upon under any circumstances.
One of the main conclusions that can be made is that it is better to earn money legally. Especially considering that now all doors are open for this. It is enough to take one or several good courses. And no, I mean a normal course, not a marathon of desires or a training for successful success and other pseudo-motivational crap. I am talking about real specialized courses, programming, video editing, design, 3D modeling, SMM, foreign languages and so on. Yes, even in business, like commodity. Now there are many good courses that help to get a profession from scratch.
To understand how dangerous the life of a carrier is, it is worth dwelling on each danger.
The first danger is the police, border guards and other security forces. And the paradox is that this is the least dangerous in the carrier's career. The Federal Drug Control Service states that only 1% of intercepted drugs in Russia are detected at the border. And the situation inside the country is no better. The traffic police pose a danger to the carrier only if he drives aggressively or too hesitantly, or violates the rules, or his car arouses suspicion because it is shabby or too dirty.
In all other cases, the traffic police stop cars for inspection purely at random. And even if they stopped a carrier with a load of drugs, the chance that they will find this cargo is minimal. YouTube generally knows of only a few dozen reports on the detention of translators, and almost all of them are related to long-term surveillance and development of the suspect.
And here we come to the second danger. More precisely, they could be combined into one. It is no secret that drug dealers are closely connected with the authorities. People in uniform need good statistics, and they provide protection to dealers in exchange for them handing over their ordinary heroes. Of course, a translator is a more valuable unit compared to an ordinary drug addict or a student-stasher. These are, as a rule, adults, serious people who approach even illegal business responsibly and understand the consequences of any sloppiness or, for example, attempts to deceive a drug boss.
This is how they differ from lower-level market characters, and at some point the carrier may think that everything is fine with him. Employers do not burden him in any way, the bot throws orders, and he gets good money, and always quietly disappears in the streams of millions of cars. Yes, and then he is simply flushed down the toilet, because the security forces must receive stars on their shoulder straps and the system cannot feed only on stashmen and requires large batches of drugs and high-profile cases, so the dealers are forced to periodically flush the carrier.
If a stash man can be flushed out in a few weeks or even a few working days, then a carrier can work for years, not suspecting that the drug business gets loyalty points for people like him. As a result of the interview, when a person becomes a carrier, he knows nothing about those he works for. And they know everything about him. And people who were previously far from crime, for some reason easily buy into this temporary comfort, forgetting that dealers are, first of all, people who run a criminal business.
By the way, the third danger is sportsmen. And there is already a video about them on the channel. Some carriers decide to cheat their employer, or in a panic before the border they take out and throw away the goods. Anything can happen, but dealers do not understand such situations, they are satisfied only with a successfully completed job, and in other cases, sportsmen take up the case to punish a bad worker. For lost or stolen goods, the worker will pay with his health, limbs and, most likely, his swallow, on which he planned to earn money.
Of course, people who start working as carriers reassure themselves that all this will not happen to them, especially since big money helps not to think about the risks. Big, by the standards of Russia and the CIS countries. As a rule, each kilometer of the route costs 100 rubles. That is, if the carrier carries mifidrone from large laboratories in St. Petersburg to Moscow, then this is already 70 thousand rubles. Plus, dealers often pay for the hotel, gasoline and snacks in cafes and give money for unforeseen expenses.
As a result, he receives for the trip an amount equal to several monthly salaries. Trips are not very frequent and take no more than one week during each month. This is enough for the carrier to earn hundreds of thousands of rubles a month, up to half a million. Although, of course, we are talking about those who consciously chose a career as a drug carrier. But sometimes the absurdity of this profession is that it is very easy to become a carrier without realizing that you are a carrier, and without even earning a decent amount of money.
This is what distinguishes them from any other inhabitants of the criminal world. And the essence is very simple. Taxi drivers, bus drivers and even Russian Railways carriers often agree to transfer some things from city A to city B. Therefore, a bus driver will not be surprised when he is asked to transfer bags with old things from Orsk to Moscow. Or a taxi driver will be asked to transport some bags from Moscow to Podolsk.
Or, for example, he will ask to drive a car from Astrakhan to Moscow. For dealers, this is very convenient due to low prices for such services. But for such a carrier, this can end in a long prison term. And no one will believe him that the drugs are not his and that he did not know what he was transporting. Yes, we are talking about Article 228. Carriers transport them in large or especially large quantities. This is the second and third parts of the article. But even if we are talking about the second article, where the maximum punishment is up to 10 years, carriers receive exactly the maximum 10 years.
This is the law enforcement practice, which is based on calls from above. That is, the judicial system is fighting drug crime. Therefore, transporting drugs in especially large quantities, carriers, finding themselves in the hands of the law, often receive sentences of 12, 13, 15 years. And now, how long do carriers live? So, a carrier is another dangerous profession in the world of crime with a full range of risks.
Long prison terms, attacks by sportsmen, and even banal traffic accidents. However, the last risk is also inherent in many legal professions, I just reminded you. Each such trip is a rally with a chance to win the Darwin Cup. However, the same can be said about any participant in the drug business, so stay away from this trash and, of course, develop yourself. This is a chance to learn something new and change your life dramatically. I am sure that you will find yourself an interesting occupation with decent pay.
When we see the news about drug trafficking, we usually remember street dealers from disadvantaged areas or stash men with backpacks, and it may seem that this entire criminal business is based on such ordinary workers who carefully shove illegal substances into flower beds or supply their clients literally from hand to hand.
