Opening credit card accounts without a spouse's knowledge can be considered a breach of trust and may be classified as financial infidelity. While it may not fit the legal definition of fraud if the accounts are opened in the husband's name alone, it can lead to significant financial and relational issues. If the husband misrepresents information or uses the wife's identity without consent, it could potentially be seen as fraud. It's essential for couples to communicate openly about financial matters to prevent such situations.
