Deirdre read that bids were being solicited for the construction of an apartment tower. Deirdre submitted the lowest bid and was offered the contract contingent on her providing acceptable sureties in the amount of $1 million. Because Deirdre never had
done work on this scale, it was virtually impossible for her to obtain the appropriate sureties. She convinced Reassuring Sureties, Inc to issue the necessary commitment by misrepresenting that she was a famous builder in Canada. As the work progressed, it seemed to be going well and Deirdre was asked to make the project 52 stories instead of 50 stories, which was the original contract height. She agreed to this change.
