Although that case is real, it did not happen in the US; I believe it was Russia or some other former Soviet Republic. Under systems of law evolved from British common law, it is generally held as necessary to inform the other party of such a change to the contract.

Sending bills for services not rendered can actually result in payment from large corporations because they are constantly receiving bills, so if it looks right there is a chance someone will just pay it. However, I believe it is also fraud if they notice and can thus get you in trouble; remember, the law is primarily there to protect companies and rich people.

Yeah, if you say you did something for them but didn't, that's fraud.

I think you can technically get away with just sending them a letter asking for money, but you have to be careful not to imply that they owe you the money or you did anything you didn't do.

I do some ordering for work and am confident if someone really wanted they could sneak something by me. You know once for a small amount of money.
