I suspect that "fraud in the inducement" could potentially be used here.
Mail fraud. Wire fraud. Federal statutes. We analyzed these in great detail when the scandal broke. They potentially apply to an infinite range of conduct that constitutes fraud so long as it involves the mail or wires. Fraud is a very broad concept involving intentional misrepresentation or concealment. There is a reason Congress made the statutes very broad so as not to limit them.
