Papa John's faces $250 million spam lawsuit.

http://money.cnn.com/2012/11/13/technology/mobile/papa-johns/

"NEW YORK (CNNMoney) -- Popular U.S. pizza chain Papa John's faces a $250 million class-action lawsuit for blasting customers with illegal text messages.
The plaintiffs allege that Papa John's (PZZA) franchises sent customers a total of 500,000 unwanted messages in early 2010. The spam texts offered deals for pizza, and some customers complained they were getting 15 or 16 texts in a row, even during the middle of the night, according Donald Heyrich, an attorney representing the class."

That is, in the sense of having a criminal mind and committing criminal acts regardless of whether or not one has been caught.
