That's like saying if a business left their door unlocked everything's free.

It's fraud.

The law doesn't think you're so clever, make no mistake, this scheme is illegal. I posted another comment where a woman was convicted of wire fraud for doing essentially exactly the same thing.

The intent to defraud matters as well as the scale (which goes hand in hand with intent).
