The street term, or slang term for a Mafia Debt collector is a "Shilo" or some would spell it as "Shylo" you would say it as these two words, made into one word "Shy-Low" this is the sound of the word. also known as Leg-breaker.
A Shilo get back money owed to the Loan Shark, in any way the Shilo sees fit, and for this Collection, the Shilo gets a percentage of the money collected, the norm is 40-50%
but if the Shilo works for the Mafia, they are on Payroll, and not payed by the job.
