Incognito Market's mastermind, Rui-Siang Lin, was arrested at JFK Airport for selling deadly drugs worth millions online.

A 23-year-old man from Taiwan has been arrested on charges of selling tens of millions of dollars worth of illegal drugs online through a site on the dark web known as the “Incognito Market.”

“As alleged, Rui-Siang Lin was the architect of Incognito, a $100 million dark web scheme to traffic deadly drugs to the United States and around the world,” Attorney General Merrick Garland said in a statement. Hundreds of kilograms of cocaine, methamphetamines and other drugs were sold on Incognito Market since its launch in October 2020, it said.“Under the promise of anonymity, Lin’s alleged operation offered the purchase of lethal drugs and fraudulent prescription medication on a global scale,” said James Smith, an assistant director in the FBI’s New York office.
