fraud:
n. (14c.)
1. Deceit, deception, artifice, or trickery operating prejudicially on the rights of another, and so intended, by inducing him to part with property or surrender some legal right. 23 Am J2d Fraud § 2.
Anything calculated to deceive another to his prejudice and accomplishing the purpose, whether it be an act, a word, silence, the suppression of the truth, or other device contrary to the plain rules of common honesty. 23 Am J 2d Fraud § 2.
An affirmation of a fact rather than a promise or statement of intent to do something in the future. Miller v Sutliff, 241 I11 521, 89 NE 651.

1. Deceit, deception, or trickery that is intended to induce, and does induce another to part with anything of value or surrender some legal right. [2]
1. A knowing misrepresentation or knowing concealment of a material fact made to induce another to act to his or her detriment. Fraud is usually a tort, but in some cases (especially when the conduct is willful) may be a crime. — aka intentional fraud. [3]
Excerpt from John Willard’s A Treatise on Equity Jurisprudence (1879):
“Fraud has been defined to be any kind of artifice by which another is deceived. Hence, all surprise, trick, cunning, dissembling, & other unfair way that is used to cheat any one, is to be considered as fraud.” [4]
fraud:
(additional definitions)
2. A reckless misrepresentation made without justified belief in its truth to induce another person to act.
3. A tort arising from a knowing or reckless misrepresentation or concealment of a material fact made to induce another to act to his or her detriment.
Additional elements in a claim for fraud may include reasonable reliance on the misrepresentation and damages resulting from this reliance.
4. Unconscionable dealing; especially, in contract law, the unfair use of power arising out of the parties’ relative
positions & resulting in an unconscionable bargain. — fraudulent, adj. [3]
Except from William R. Anson, Principles of the Law of Contract 263 (Arthur L. Corbin ed., 3d Am. ed. 1919):
“The use of the term fraud has been wider & less precise in the chancery than in the common-law courts. This followed necessarily from the remedies which they respectively administered. Common law gave damages for a wrong, & was compelled to define with care the wrong which furnished a cause of action. Equity refused specific performance of a contract, or set aside a transaction, or gave compensation where one party had acted unfairly by the other. Thus ‘fraud’ as common law is a false statement… : fraud in equity has often been used as meaning unconscientious dealing — ‘although, I think, unfortunately’, a great equity lawyer has said.” [5]

The factum-inducement distinction has proved difficult to apply in borderline cases and has been abandoned in most modern criminal codes, Cf. fraud in the factum.

[3]
Excerpt from Thomas F. Bergin & Paul G. Haskell’s Preface to Estates in Land and Future Interests (2d ed. 1984):
“With respect to the general power which is exercisable by deed, it seems that the principle that the donee’s creditors can reach the property subject to the exercised general power will have application only to the so-called fraudulent conveyance. That is to say, if the owned assets of the donee after the donative inter vivos exercise are sufficient to satisfy the creditors, then the exercise of the power will not subject the appointive property to the claims of the creditors; if, on the other hand, the owned assets of the donee are inadequate to satisfy creditors’ claims after the exercise of the power, then the transfer resulting from the exercise is likely to fall into the category of the fraudulent conveyance and the creditors will be able to reach the appointive property in the hands of the appointee.” [7]
2. Bankruptcy.
