But if you work for the government there may be specific prohibitions to this type of behavior. I know when I was in the military I had to turn in any Frequent flyer miles that were paid for or reimbursed by the government. The same was true for any reward points on credit cards used for purchases that were reimbursed. | |

As @dirkk correctly points out in another answer, this can be seen as theft in some countries, which can be grounds for immediate termination, or at least a severe warning. | |
