Over 700 people are members of an Icelandic Facebook group which offers illegal drugs and weapons for sale. Many of the group members are college and even high school kids. Some of them are company directors and some are stay-at-home mothers.
Here, one of the page users offers amphetamine, coke and MDMA to name a few and publishes a phone number.
There are three page administrators, two young men born in 1994 and one teenage girl born in 1996. The girl has written a note several times on the page stating that the page is only intended for legal sale of products. This, however, does not seem to be the case.
Here is a screenshot of two illegal drugs, cannabis and Ecstacy.
Among the drugs which mbl.is found for sale on the page are prescription drugs, cannabis, amphetamine and cocaine. Also on offer are knuckle dusters and knives.
Many of the group users go by their real names although many also use pseudonyms hinting at what they're selling. By clicing on the names of such users, Mbl.is found dozens of Icelandic Facebook users apparently selling or buying drugs of various sorts.
One individual using his real name offers OxyContin for sale, a painkiller available by prescription.
Acccording to mbl.is sources, the Icelandic police force is well aware of illegal sales on Facebook and is investigating such pages with the help of the Facebook administration.
