criminal-law theft
Is hacking and stealing punished more harshly than solely hacking?
<p>Which of the following crimes generally has a more severe punishment:</p>

<ul>
<li>Unauthorized bank account access (e.g. hacking in to view information), or</li>
<li>Unauthorized account access <em>and</em> taking money from that account</li>
</ul>

<p>The latter because there are two crimes involved (hacking <em>and</em> stealing) and you would get punished for both.</p>
