the crime of misstating facts to obtain money, goods or benefits of another to which
the accused is not entitled. Examples a person a) falsely claims to represent a
charity to obtain a donation which he/she keeps; b) says a painting is a genuine
Jackson Pollock when it is a fake and thus is able to sell it for a price much greater
than its true value. Misrepresentation is also called "false pretenses. "
