| What is Fraud?
1. In a broad
strokes definition, fraud is a deliberate
misrepresentation which causes another person to suffer
damages, usually monetary losses. Most people consider
the act of lying to be fraudulent, but in a legal sense
lying is only one small element of actual fraud. A
salesman may lie about his name, eye color, place of
birth and family, but as long as he remains truthful
about the product he sells, he will not be found guilty
of fraud. There must be a deliberate
misrepresentation of the product's condition and actual
monetary damages must occur.

unlawful gain.

What the owner of
needtechs.com, Ron Blicksilver did was
manipulate his Alexa website traffic ranking by
installing the Alexa toolbar on his work computers and
then working from those computers on a daily basis and
accessing his website needtechs.com, therefore
intentionally manipulating his Alexa rankings and then
would sell advertising based on the Alexa rankings being
true. Ron Blicksilver made it appear his website
needtechs.com had more traffic than all of his
competitors when in fact it did not!
When Ron Blicksilver the
owner of need techs manipulated his Alexa numbers and
used the rankings to sell advertising on his website,
that was deliberate misrepresentation of the
product's condition and is considered FRAUD!
