Australia seems to focus more on food products & cigarettes (Asian people), cash over 10K, drugs, and Indonesian boats going after shark fin etc.

Probably headed to Melbourne in Jan. Was telling the wife I want to get called for further inspection/questioning.
So my plan is to (1) act nervous just before immigration/customs (2) when asked for purpose of trip, I'm going to volunteer upfront "not for work, but here for vacation" (3) purposely not have a lot of cash on me.
The other things I've seen are (4) people with too much luggage (5) buying the flight 1-2 days before departure (6) having a quick return e.g. drug mule
I could also bring along some "food" or cartons of cigarette, and not declare them but that could cost me real money with a fine.
