In my question below.  Is #1 considered fraud?

Joey said probably not fraud, but definitely unethical and potentially grounds for a lawsuit - if you have a contract that states the vacation policy and they are clearly in violation.  For instance, he doesn't have a contract at his job that states the policy, so if his boss took away any accrued vacation time, he'd basically just be SOL.

 Could be fraud if they are doing it as they apply for loans or something because it's a misrepresentation, but that they are likely being audited if that's the case anyway, and probably wouldn't 'get away with it." 

He wants me to also say that he's not an expert in this, his opinions are extrapolations based on what he learned in school and the little bit that he encounters at work.
