Stan Smith realizes his credit card payment for his new gadget was sent out a day late and calls his credit card company in a panic. He can't afford to have his clearance suspended. The foreign support agent tells him he isn't allowed to fix that, but as a favor he does anyway.
Stan is surprised when the lawyer assigned to his foreign suspect by the embassy makes a reference to these new gadgets (perhaps coincidentally?)
What does Stan do? The problem is who can alert Stan's supervisor and how likely it becomes that every agent can be blackmailed as you move toward a zero tolerance policy.
One late payment won't hurt. IDK. Pay your bills on time and immediately tell a superior. This just doesn't seem practical. You ar almost never penalized for things like this if you report them. One late payment won't really touch your credit anyhow. Just seems much harder to exploit as th instructions for things like this are very clear and any TS or better holder routinely reports anything like this.
