      "Violence as a Service", criminals seek and offer others online to commit violence against other people. E.g. molotov cocktail, brick through the window. Mostly amongst SIM swappers (to take over accounts). Krebs suggests this may become a more common thing, like swatting, which started out as a crime amongst gamers and got wider adoption in the US (such as amongst SIM swappers).
