When Cam'ron announced last month he was going to sell Dipset Ebola masks we thought it may be a joke.

But it turns out he was completely serious about the whole thing.

TMZ caught up with Killa Cam yesterday outside a LA nightclub and he told the paps he has sold about 5000 of the masks, which won't ship out until next week.

They are going for $19.99 each on the Dipset website and since they are just basic surgical masks with a design printed on them that should be a very healthy profit for Cam.

Thankfully Ebola isn't an airborne disease, so the masks actually offer no protection against the terrible malady. But they can still be a very stylish way to prevent the flu this winter.
