We all know insurance is a rather sedate industry. It seems the scandals and publicity that dog other industries (even related ones like finance) usually dont play in our sleepy acre of the public consciousness. To tell the truth, Im losing consciousness just thinking about the lack of entertainment value in this field. Why its enough to make one consider switching to a more exciting and potentially dangerous work setting. The post office comes to mind.

But before we lose hope for any juicy excitement in the annals of insurance, lets consider a scenario that could create the kind of hullabaloo that grabs headlines. First, relax and empty your mind. Now, let your body sway to a thumping, churning reggae beat, and open your mind to the accompanying lyrics: Bad boy, bad boy, whatchoo gonna do? Thats right, you know where Im going. Were in the opening of a special Cops program focusing on some real bad boyscyber criminals. But were not talking about just any hackers here, were talking about those no-goodniks who ply their nefarious trade in insurance.
