Crime does not need to be perfect to be undetected. We have a good idea of base rates of murder and burglary, so I would expect that most people not know one of those. Burglary also doesn’t seem to be a one-of-crime but mostly done by organized gangs.
Embezzlement on the other hand happens in different strengths. Plenty of employees embezzle pens and paper from their employers
Theft from supermarkets would be one example. 1⁄4 Britains admit to stealing at self-service checkouts. You likely know more thieves than you think.
Different kinds of fraud also happen more often relative to their visibility. That likely includes subjects like false data in scientific publications.
