Interesting. I tried Googling around but couldn't anything concrete that label this as fraud that would put you in legal trouble. Scenario: You buy a laptop from a local shop, after returning it in person, you say to the Owner: 'Thanks for the laptop, I just needed it for my international trip.' What exactly can he charge you with legally? EDIT: Ah okay, upon further research it seems like "fraud" and "unlawful" aren't the same here.
