Fictitious is the key word here. And from what you are describing, this is clearly not a case of wire fraud. Read the law books. They are very specific on what constitutes wire fraud. Nor is it embezzlement. This is just a case of a desperate man that wanted more for his daughter. And in the long run got caught doing absolutely nothing wrong. However, he will likely get convicted on his stupidity.
