Second Life crime levels

I've "ummed and ahhed" over registering with Second Life for quite some time but I can see why some say there is powerful marketing to be had there.

My only concern is joining Second Life and then not doing enough in the "real world" to pay the bills!

I'm also kinda wondering how long it will take for the first criminals in Second Life to be publicly prosecuted in real life for offences commited in the virtual world... sounds an interesting concept... frightening but interesting....
