Active fraud

Explanation:

Agent Sam is a real estate property agent and he speaks with a prospective customer about a house. Agent Sam falsely claims that the property has a very beautiful landscape and is magnificent.

The agent misleads and lure the prospective customer by saying that the building has an excellent architecture whereas in reality the property is average and is not as beautiful as mentioned by the agent.

Thus the agent is engaging in fraud by misleading the customer and it is an offense. When the customer finds out about the fraud done by the agent, he can sue the agent.

A fraud is a wrongful deception which is intended for personal or a financial gain.
