On April 12, mainland netizen Guo Meimei and 75 others were accused of selling toxic diet pills. The related case amounted to more than 50 million RMB.
On April 12, the official microblog of Shanghai Public Security Bureau of the Communist Party of China said that 75 people, including Zeng Moumou, Zhou Moumou and Guo Moumou, were suspected of producing and selling toxic and harmful weight-loss health food. The “special effect weight loss health food” has added “sibutramine”, a prohibited ingredient that can cause harm to the body.
The case involved a total amount of more than 50 million yuan, involving 3 production sites, 24 sales points, more than 65,000 toxic and harmful weight-loss health food products, about 34 kilograms of production materials, 3 sets of production equipment and more than 20,000 pieces of outer packaging.
On the 18th of last month, Surfing News learned from Shanghai Pudong Police that Guo Moumou (female, 30), who was criminally detained that month for producing and selling weight-loss food with prohibited ingredients (sibutramine), was the net-celebrity Guo Meimei; those who were also criminally detained included Zeng Moumou (female, 26) and salesperson Zhou Moumou (female, 26).
Upstream News reported on April 12 that, according to a source, Guo was an online distributor of the diet food, which she sold mainly in her circle of friends. The report also said that the diet food cost only a few cents per capsule, and the price to the distributor was just over $1, but the customer had to buy it for 69 yuan.
Guo’s imprisonment is less than two years after his previous release (July 13, 2019). Guo Mei Mei was last jailed in July 2014, when authorities informed that Guo Mei Mei Mei had engaged in multiple sex transactions for up to hundreds of thousands of RMB each time; in September of the following year, Guo was sentenced to five years in prison and fined 50,000 RMB.
Guo Mei Mei was brought to the attention of the public because of her wealthy scandal in 2011. Back then, Guo showed off her wealth on Weibo as the general manager of the Chinese Red Cross Society’s business: she lived in a large villa, drove a Maserati and Lamborghini, and owned a dozen Hermes bags with her mother, among other things.
