This is the definition of fraud:
Fraud is defined legally like this:
1. intentional perversion of truth in order to induce another to part with something of value or to surrender a legal right
2. an act of deceiving or misrepresenting
3. a person who is not what he or she pretends to be
Fraud is criminal. It means lying about who you are or scamming people out of money by pretending something is a fact when you know it’s not.
It has nothing to do with bonuses really, they are coincidental.
