Yeah, there is a Sicilian New Yorker called "Gambino" who has been
advertising "protection from ISIS" in European newspapers lately. From what
I read his father was big at selling protection for cash, and now he is
taking up his father's business and selling protection from ISIS. To prove
his value, he claimed ISIS is so afraid of his organisation that Sicily is
a place they never dare visit. Presumably Gambino's business model depends
on a cash based economy, or at least it did.
