unfortunately this seems to be a general rule for many,"if you can get away with it then its okay." I overheard someone talking about a scam they read in the paper and they said, "Well if these guys were smart enough to scam this old lady they deserve to keep the money" Seems to be the same as the attitude you mentioned above. oops, now I've become an accomplish to his hijaking.
