The bracelet will send an alert that you tried to interfere with it. In addition to the infrared sensor, the device also comes with a temperature sensor.
The bracelet will take temperature readings and continuously monitor the temperature. If there is a variance in temperature, it may be an indication that there is an object between the skin and the device. If you place an obstruction, it will result in lower temperature readings.
