How would a loan shark operate today to be successful?

I mean if a guy was to try to intimidate a business owner who owed him money, the majority would laugh in his face and the feds would be knocking down the guys door in no time.

So how the fuck would a guy even make a living in todays world being a loan shark?


Where do you get this from? The vast majority of cases today involve loansharking and the subsequent extortion that comes along with it after you miss payments and the amount of debts that actually go running to the feds is probably less than 1%. For a loanshark to be successful today they would do the same thing they've done since the dawn of time.
