I would say it's probably not as rampant as one might think.   The issue is how to classify the money that's put into one's pocket.  My guess is, he broke a major taboo.

I knew a guy that worked at Dillons who thought he uncovered a huge conspiracy when Ell Roberson came in and cashed a check from Kansas State University.

I'd say the exact opposite.
