to be honest, no i did not know that it was illegal.. i never would have questioned that if it is for sell online, that someone would risk getting in major trouble.... i am very naive.. but obviuosly companies don't care????? okay, second question, if i debate the charge bc i did not get what i paid for, will i get in trouble for doing something illegal?

From what I understand it's illegal to SELL it online.... and you didn't know you were buying it when it's not allowed to be sold that way any longer. I'd google "illegal phentermine online" and see if you can find some info to read up on...maybe that will help. I wouldn't even say it's a "company" that doesn't care.. individuals can set up websites and make them look professional and then you think you're buying from some large professional company but it's really Joe Blow down the street in his basement making fake phen.. who knows. :(

CONSUMER ALERT

READ THIS BEFORE PURCHASING PRESCRIPTION DRUGS OVER THE INTERNET !!!

DEA Warning--Buying drugs online may be illegal and dangerous!

Federal law prohibits buying controlled substances such as narcotic pain relievers (e.g., OxyContin®, Vicodin ®), sedatives (e.g., Valium®, Xanax®, Ambien®), stimulants (e.g., phentermine, phendimetrazine, Adderall®, Ritalin®) and anabolic steroids (e.g., Winstrol®, Equipoise®) without a valid prescription from your doctor. This means there must be a real doctor-patient relationship, which by most state laws requires a physical examination. Prescriptions written by "cyber doctors" relying on online questionnaires are not legitimate under the law.

Buying controlled substances online without a valid prescription may be punishable by imprisonment under Federal law. Often drugs ordered from rogue websites come from foreign countries. It is a felony to import drugs into the United States and ship to a non-DEA registrant.
