Scam for now unregulated? It's a potentially difficult situation (3,2,5)
I believe the answer is:
can of worms
'a potentially difficult situation' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot tell whether it can be defined by this definition.
'scam for now unregulated?' is the wordplay.
'scam for now' anagrams to 'CAN OF WORMS'.
But, I am unsure how this is indicated.
'it's' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for can of worms that I've seen before include "Complex problem" , "Bird's convenience food" , "an angler might have?" , "Potential trouble" , "Something likely to prove awkward" .)
