Looks like a Fraud could come under the general umbrella of LIE.

BTW, regarding the definition of Fraud, I don’t necessarily agree with the phrase: “ resulting in injury to another person.”

One could commit a fraud in order to further an idea or a cause without a person being injured in the process.

Also, I find the motives of Ahmed quite mysterious.

Getting others to donate funds they believed they were giving under one issue but that were given under false pretense would constitute harm to their finances and trust. Hopefully it all must be returned and punishment meted out.
