The reality is the old woman would probably never know that you have ripped them off. Of course they may accidentally notice the newspaper or TV and see that you ripped them off by telling them the wrong numbers. But as you know, what you are suggesting is that you betray the trust of an old women who it counting on you to help her. She may never know you deceived her, but it still does not make it right. It's really quite sad that you are even thinking about how you could take advantage of an elderly person in this way. So to answer your question, no I would not rip off an elderly woman by stealing her lottery win. It is morally reprehensible, and I would rather be poor than a millionaire who became rich through an immoral act of fraud against a vulnerable old person.

No, because there are spiritual consequences that bring curses upon the grave robber for violating the sacred.

No. There is no such thing as a victimless crime.
Stealing something that doesn't belong to you, even if your victim doesn't know (this one being dead), still has a negative impact on society.
No one has the right to take something that does not belong to them. No exceptions.

No it is not.
What about the family and the loved ones of the person whose grave was robbed?

No, the family has been harmed.

Not really. It's hard on the "victims" family.

Maybe, but it's also a poor one. If I were going to go for crime, I'd look into something with a better retirement plan, like politics!
(What do you consider archaeology, if not grave-robbing?)

Hmmm Pretty much, as long as you clean up your mess.
