No. Read the article. Oh fuck I'll save you the time. Wire fraud.

I think entrapment needs to be the government/police doing this. This apparently is considered mail and wire fraud.

"On Friday, federal prosecutors unsealed an 18-count indictment charging Hansmeier and Steele with conspiracy to commit mail and wire fraud, conspiracy to commit and suborn perjury, and other charges."
