"Your analogy fails in that it isn’t inherently wrong, or illegal, to spend $100."

Assuming the $100 was deposited into your account in error, of course it is. My point is, you don't know.

A moral person would contact the bank to find out what's going on. An immoral person would adopt the attitude of "possession is 9/10th's of the law" and spend it.

But filming that would not attract many viewers.

Wrong analogy. This was not an error. These men KNOW they are committing a crime.

If you give someone a car and say “This car is stolen. If you drive it, you could be arrested”, that would be a closer analogy.
