Kuala Lumpur, 18th May 2025 - Social media sites are often used by syndicates to promote and market drug-laced vapes.

It is learnt that the purchases are made online and a courier service is the go-to method to deliver the 'special' vapes to customers.

"We have detected that syndicates would resort to using social media to market their banned product.

“However, they are also packaging the drug-laced vapes and pods in a similar way to normal vape products, making it difficult for authorities to identify whether a vape pod or device contains drugs or otherwise,” acting Director of Narcotics Crime Investigation Department, DCP Mat Zani @ Mohd Salahuddin Che Ali told The Star recently.

He said there are also vape shops that sell drug-laced vapes to certain customers.
