Yes, it is.  You don't know what you're talking about.

Lots of things are "by their very nature against the law" -- not just
larceny.  Stating so does not make you look knowledgeable (you're not).  The
definition of larceny is "The unlawful taking and removing of another's
personal property with the intent of permanently depriving the owner;
theft."  That definition most definitely includes deliberately depriving
someone of access to something which he has purchased.

Nope.  The client hit [Submit] twice.  I didn't double-bill him.  He did it
himself.

Then again you've already demonstrated a dearth of knowledge of US law, not
to mention ethics.

Not *all* alarm companies ... just most of them.
