People keep saying “in secret” but that’d only be true if it happened after it were filed or some such. Giving someone an amended contract isn’t fraud.

Giving someone an amended contract isn't fraud, no. Giving someone an amended contract while making them think it hasn't been amended is a different matter, though.
