Claim representative Marta has a good relationship with Fatima, a defense attorney used by her employer. Marta and Fatima have met for coffee on their own time, and have common interests outside of their professional lives. The insurance company for which Marta works has a policy prohibiting the receipt of holiday gifts from vendors. Fatima wants to send a fruit basket from her firm to Marta anyway. She sent an e-mail to Marta asking for her home address so that she could send the gift as a token of friendship and avoid any scrutiny from Marta's employer. Marta would like a free fruit basket but is uncomfortable with the suggested arrangements. What useful step she can take?
