Fraud in the inducement is a subset of the fraud tort occurring when the promisor's consent is induced by fraud. (Hinesley v. Oakshade Town Center (2005) 135 Cal.App.4th 289, 294.) The elements of fraud are: (1) a misrepresentation (false representation, concealment, or nondisclosure); (2) scienter or knowledge of its falsity; (3) intent to induce reliance; (4) justifiable reliance; and (5) resulting damage.
