And if that happened UA will replace them. SInce this is UA currency, UA has knowledge how used and you just state they were stolen and not used by you. UA knows who flew and given the id requirement, it makes this hard to be anonymous. UA will cancel the tickets if reported quick enough.

The risk is low and the consequences lower.
