Archie, you have ...

The bold portion of your statement describes a fraud (even if there is a refund). I have said repeatedly that such conduct is both wrong and illegal. It is a crime. In California (and most or all other states as well), fraud can be either a misdemeanor or a felony, depending on the amount of money involved.
