Pulling an Enron

Shredding a high volume of documents at one given point in time. May or may not be unethical or a questionable practice depending on the situation. For instance, pulling an Enron can be completely innocuous if you are a pack rat known to hoard lots of paper who is doing some spring cleaning. However, it could also serve as a sign that you're about to lose your life's savings due to crooked business practices.
