The first and third examples are fraud. These have nothing to do with the proposed issue anymore than someone falsifying that a plane can fly (for whatever guidelines a jurisdiction uses to govern that). The third is subtle because it's not 1 in 1000 (randomly) but 1 in N-members of 1000, making it not in 1/1000.

How can you discover this fraud? If the proprietor says these are horrible unrelated accidents and they promise they're working hard to fix the problem, how can you find out the truth if you can't audit the code?
