In order to have fraud you have to have a victim. Who was the victim of this "fraud" in these test scores?

Er, how about the deserving student with a stellar academic background and outstanding college admission test score who was bumped from a seat by this fraud?

Fraud it is!

Not "fraud" (as you call it).

[Alberta's Child]

The "deserving student" has no legal claim on getting admitted to the university, so there is no fraud. This student doesn't own a spot on the university's admission list, so he or she can't be a victim of fraud in this case by any legal definition.

This "deserving student" is no different than a person who wants to buy a new car on the lot at a dealership, but then is unable to buy it because someone stole it the night before he got there. Yeah, it's too bad you can't buy the car you want ... but it wasn't stolen from YOU because you never owned it in the first place.
