I guess it's news to you that the financial sector and especially banks in fact do exactly that:

But it doesn't stop with the cards. ATMs, Tax Fraud, ... almost all businesses within banks have to deal with fraud and there is some threshold that they just allow to happen.

like shoplifting. Most large chains know exactly how much "loss" they experience, and they just raise their prices to cover it. Theft and fraud is a part of life unfortunately...
