The agreement followed an investigation that showed that UPS was shipping drugs on behalf of Internet pharmacies that were distributing controlled substances and prescription drugs that were not supported by a valid prescription. Despite being on notice from employees that such illegal shipments were being delivered, UPS ‘did not implement procedures to close the shipping accounts of Internet pharmacies,’ said a Department of Justice statement.”
