	What makes you think this is fraud?? Apple does not honor
the warranty on anything that is modified by a non-apple modification. That
means if you do a third party upgrade to your Mac,then the motherboard, power 
supply, etc. are no longer covered under the Apple's warranty. This does not
prevent a REASONABLE dealer from covering a 128K ROM and/or 800K drive that
fail within the warranty period for those parts.
