A friend and I were discussing about Krishna (Hindu God) when she asked me why I think Krishna is a fraud.
I explained. If the CFO of a listed company plays the stock market before public announcement of the company's results we call it insider trading - a fraud.
Krishna knew everything that was going to happen upfront and guided things to happen that way. imagine if Perry Mason, the successful lawyer, won because he was also the judge. Krishna was like that.
Krishna made it seem that Mahabharat was a war between good and evil. And that the rules were fair and that he was only a charioteer and not an active participant (not a judge but only, say, a bailiff in the court), He wanted to show that good triumphs in a fair war against evil.
But he participated...and how...He was David Warner for the Pandavas.

If you play a game where you (and only you) largely control the outcome also through means that aren't kosher then you are a fraud. Reminds me of the owner of Chennai SuperKings. And the team was dissolved...
