FRAUD
just for the record , because i see alot of people have differing opinions on what fraud is. In general a fraud is an intentional deception made for personal gain . As a legal aspect obviously it would depend on the jurisdiction but here are some basic factors from wikipedia.
1.a representation of an existing fact;
2.its materiality;
3.its falsity;
4.the speaker's knowledge of its falsity;
5.the speaker's intent that it shall be acted upon by the plaintiff;
6.plaintiff's ignorance of its falsity;
7.plaintiff's reliance on the truth of the representation;
8.plaintiff's right to rely upon it; and
9.consequent damages suffered by plaintiff.
