A crime committed by an individual or a group for financial gain in which no citizen gets physically harmed or killed, the only victimization from these crimes are a financial loss from a corporation, a bank, or a government entity, which are usually justified by those committing these crimes because of how much those entities screw citizens on an everyday basis.

Most victimless crimes are fraud schemes, however there are a few exceptions to this such as recreational narcotic possession, prostitution (as long as both parties are consenting adults), and shoplifting.

Victimless crimes are also way more attractive to a lot of criminals or everyday citizens that have a one time wild nerve to make some extra cash, as these crimes yield MANY less years in prison than crimes where someone gets hurt. Example of this is someone being a 3rd time check fraud offender getting sentenced to 2 years in prison, versus someone who is a 1st time offender committing an assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill and getting 5 to 10 years.

Billy Ray: Hey Jimbo, you ever heard of credit card skimming? We can go place these over the card readers at the corner store and have cvvs for days!! It's a victimless crime, definitely will not result in a trip back to the state pen for the 3rd time!
Jimbob: hell yeah! Let's do it. Fraud is poppin!

Whale

In sales terms, a whale is a prospect that is significantly larger than an organization’s average customer.

Whales are large and extremely difficult to close. Due to their immense size, they are highly sought-after.

A whale is typically identified at first by a whale hunter on the sales team, but often requires cross-discipline participation in order to close; this includes assistance from operations, engineering, creative, client success, and business development teams.

"Shit...the sales director chewed me out on the sales call this morning. He's totally pissed that I have nothing in my pipeline. I've been focused on this one whale for so long that I haven't had time to prospect for normal-sized deals."
