This isn't quite the same meaning, but there is a saying that "the pitcher goes to the well once too often," or "the pitcher that goes to the well too often is broken." If you keep taking the shortcut of taking the pitcher directly to the well to fill it (instead of using a bucket, then filling the pitcher from the bucket) you will end up breaking the pitcher. So risky behavior, as well as doing bad secretly, will eventually be punished.
