This was in Aug. this year (Bombay)...

Hi Every one,
I have just come back from Goa after 10 days.
Back home, all this time, our younger Goans were crazy
about foreign Chocolates, bath Soap/Sabao, T-shirts,
Jeans pants etc but now they don�t want this as every
body got �Mobile Phone� fever.
So, I bought 2 from ebay (internet Auction).
At Bombay Airport (Green channel), the two in my
luggage were detected by x-ray and both my suitcase
and handbag was sent for opening /inspection
I told the two customs officers that the mobiles are
used & old models Nokia3330 . So, they started
searching for something else, but found no other
electronics so they took 2 big (500g each) Cadburys
chocolates of mine from my hand bag where there was
one more mobile (my personal).
If you suitcase is opened, they will never let go so
easily, if nothing is found, then they will take away
food stuff . This is the second time happened to me in
3 years. Greedy dogs!!
My Advice:
Carry yours mobiles in your trousers pockets and not
in your suitcase or hand bag.
Don�t let them open your suitcase just because of
mobile phones (& who knows? they might even find some
thing else).
Thanks
