This attitude is the reason “someone is going to get paid”.

If you see a unattended laptop in a coffeeshop, do you steal it because “someone will steal it, so it might as well be me”?

Where do you draw the line?

Ready to do anything for money as long as it seems legal-ish or your ass is covered by hierarchy?

Yeah, there are reasons why "someone is going to do it anyway" is a classic example of an ethically unsound argument.
