Yes: solving drug trafficking routes with several constraints, making the best scams, exploiting vulnerabilities to install a botnet.

All are very interesting challenges.

Drug trafficking is a relatively honorable occupation that delivers a highly demanded consumer good that's affordable for a broad cross section of society. It's unfair to compare it to the Stasi or consumer scams.
Except for all the people killed by the gangs involved in smuggling this highly demanded consumer good that's affordable for a broad cross section of society across the borders.
Those are all consequences of illegality, not of the trade itself.
