I’m so tempted to do something but i know its wrong, how can i fight this erge?

I live in silicon valley in california, one of the most expensive places to live, so money is always low for us. Well me and my friend have both moved out of your parents house and into our own apartments. We’re in our 20′s and in school. Anyways neither of us had money for furniture and we didnt want hand outs from our parents so we both got living room sets including big screen tv’s from rent a center. Each week my payment is $140, hers was about the same. her debit card was stolen, she got a new one but never told rent a center about it, they called her almost everyday for payment for about 3 months but have stopped calling its been about 8 months since she last paid. ive talked to other ppl and they said they have done the same and rent a center dosnt do anything about it. she’s checked her credit and nothin has been reported. now im so jealous and tempted to do the same, but just cant beleive that nothing happens. has anyone done this before.
I just dont get how rent a center can afford not to sue ppl, or report to the credit agencys or do anykind of follow up for non payment, they would be loosing out on hundreds or thousands of $$ from ppl keeping the furniture!!

Don’t call him ‘Mr. Mom:’ Single dads fight for acceptance
The looks of disbelief are only a small part of the reason why Lawrence Sibley carries so many photos in his wallet. Still, it’s easy to see how many times those dog-eared pictures have been thumbed through – both by Sibley and the startled acquaintances that demand the proof he readily produces from his back pocket. Most of the time, he’ll forgive their brazen curiosity. He knows he is …
