I can't find much on this subject. I see that you can be fined by a couple of corporations but do not understand how this works in game terms...
Just carry in a fast ship and or cloaker?
Does Concord attack/fine you or Customs? Can you avoid them or is the fine auto deducted from income etc.
Appreciate advice on where is there info on how to do this.
cheers
thanks

I have once made two tests.
In both tests I used a small and fast vigil with cloak device.
In the first try I placed a EGG inside a secure can and I flew thru some systems, in one of this system Concord got me while aproaching the gate. The sent me a message that if I resist they would destroy the ship. I gave up, they took the EGG and charged a fine, plus I suffered a security loss.
The second time I placed some slaves and flew in Minmatar space were it is proibited. They never caught me.
Plus one time I was carring some small weapons somewere in caldari state were it is also proibited, once I docked and tried to undock the station gave me a message I was tring to undock with contraband and I could be fined for that, I choosed to leave that in the station. But the point is I traveled several jumps without even knowing I was carring contraband and no one got me even not using instas or overcloaking, in fact I was AFK all my travels.
I maybe wrong but with all this I came to the conclusion that contraband is searched in a random basis and you may or not be caught with your pants down.
Soo just be carefull use instas, cloak, and lots of nanofibers to get out ASAP. But if you get caught and they give you the chance to surrender It is best that you surrender or else you will end up loosiong more thant the contraband and the fine, but also your ship.

By choosing a particular career path when you create a character you can begin the game with a skill that gives you a 10% chance per level to avoid detection when you are searched. The career path is a specialized trader, I think its Gallente but can't quite remember. I discovered it when creating a trader alt. There is also a follow-on skill that is rarely dropped by agents that further increases your chances of escaping detection. The 2 skills are smuggling and black market operation but I can't remember which is which. Stoopid memory.
Aside from that, yes, the searching of ships is on a chance basis. And yes, instas are the way to go to avoid almost all searches.
hope that helps you a little
