You don't know how broadly crime of fraud is defined by
the current code.

Just injecting false route information may not be a
crime.

However, doing so for financial gain maybe a crime of fraud.

False registration for financial gain by deceiving a registrar
is definitely a crime, regardless of what is registered.

See the actual code:

	https://www.legislation.gov.au/Details/C2015C00507
	134.2  Obtaining a financial advantage by deception
	 (1)  A person is guilty of an offence if
          (a)  the person, by a deception, dishonestly obtains
          a financial advantage from another person; and
	135.1  General dishonesty
          (1)  A person is guilty of an offence if:
          (a)  the person does anything with the intention of
          dishonestly obtaining a gain from another person; and
	 (3)  A person is guilty of an offence if:
          (a)  the person conspires with another person with the
	intention of dishonestly causing a loss to a third person; and
	 (5)  A person is guilty of an offence if:
          (a)  the person conspires with another person to dishonestly
          cause a loss, or to dishonestly cause a risk of loss, to a
          third person; and
          (b)  the firstâ??mentioned person knows or believes that the
          loss will occur or that there is a substantial risk of the
          loss occurring; and

Australian code on fraud is very similar to that of Japan.
