A very long time ago, we had a F/A who took his own booze to work and charged the airline rate. He never showed any sales on any of his flights and that raised some suspicion (going to the Bahamas, Key West and back!). He got greedy and started charging for Coke's and someone complained which is when he got caught.
I think some FA's just sell the company's liquor and still keep the cash and not reporting the sale.

Had one years ago do this. She'd refill the minis w/ booze at home, pretend to be breaking the seal as she gave it to the passenger, and pocket the dough. Company was big on liquor sales and got suspicious when she never turned in a liquor sales report or showed no sales on it. Put a ghost rider on her flight, boom, busted and fired.

Then there's the other side...
Back in the late 1970s, had a non-rev accuse a flight attendant of stealing liquor minis from the 1st class galley. He reported it to me and I passed it on to the captain.
He, the passenger, saw something he thought was theft. The F/A in question did take some minis from first class to sell in coach because they ran out of what they needed.
The captain quickly got to the bottom of it then told the passenger to go ******* himself. We never heard anything else about it.

Right...I was addressing the person I quoted who I assumed that's what he was referring to.
Is it wrong? Heck yeah! Does it happen often? Heck yeah, again!
Now, what this person did in the article is a whole new level of dumb. How they didn't think someone would catch on and MAYBE have an issue with them selling stolen minis on craigslist (or whatever) is beyond me.
