"In April 2006, fugitive Mafia boss Bernardo Provenzano was captured in Sicily partly because some of his messages, written in a variation of the Caesar cipher, were broken. Provenzano's cipher used numbers, so that "A" would be written as "4", "B" as "5", and so on.[11]" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caesar_cipher http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caesar_cipher And this wasn't just some bozo, but a Mafia boss who was certainly into a lot of different "lines of business": http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernardo_Provenzano http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernardo_Provenzano
