> Is this not considered fraud?

Commenter is being sarcastic, but also pointing out some truth.

For instance, this mobile operator [1] "New S’pore MVNO Gorilla Mobile lets you turn unused mobile data into digital crypto tokens" taking advantage of the AI/crypto craze introducing a completely unnecessary crypto token into the product. It's just pure marketing. Although not exactly lying, you can get the drift the commenter was making.
