While serving as a Branch Manager one of my customers approached me for packing credit showing a Letter of Credit xerox for export of Paan masala to a Middle Eastern country. I cautioned him against the export which he appreciated later as the substance was shortly banned by the country and he would have incurred a loss had he undertaken to export the paan masala.
