Well, it doesn't say anything in the law about "rattling the lock on a
safety deposit box after dropping your money in". But even in that
case, anyone with a decent conscience would look around when rattling
because it would feel a little "odd". But on the case of Mr. Cuthbert's
 "attempt to verify the security", that IS indeed mentioned as being
criminal in the law books. As -J said "This is an open and shut case"
