“Cable theft” occurs when people watch cable delivered signals without paying for it. There are many ways to steal cable. The first is to tamper with the cable lines to bring service to a home that isn’t paying for it. The second is to use an illegal converter or descrambler that will deliver channels of programming that are not being paid for. The third is to receive services that were connected to a home in error and not report it.
