I got stopped by the customs people when I arrived in Singapore. They x-rayed my luggage and obviously 'noticed' the bottles of wine I was transporting!
They kindly pointed out that I seemed to have more wine than the duty free allowance of 2 litres. I tried to use the excuse that I was in transit -- they just said that I could store my wine in left luggage.
In the end it wasn't so bad. The total duty due was about SGD18, which I paid up (and if I wanted to store my wine that wouldn't have been free). I just felt a bit naughty!
