    - It's just not something I'd tend to equate, due to the total value of the fraud (which admittedly I'm guessing at) and the motivation/intent. - mara Apr 22, 13:42 2
      - The fake baby certainly entails a huge amount of pretense afterward. -- nm - loosilu Apr 22, 13:46

  - Legally, I don't think there's a distinction. - Dr.Vermin Apr 22, 13:32 2
    - I think mara is more interested in the mental part. -- nm - loosilu Apr 22, 13:42 1
      - "is it fraud?" -- nm - Thread Point Apr 22, 13:52
