if he knew the checks/cheques were not going to clear, or if he deceived people into doing work for him - and had no intention of paying them 9putting the type of work to one side) then it is fraud, all that needs to be shown is deception, and the fact that it was done a few times, if it was done once , then it could be a "mistake" or a "dispute" or a "civil matter" , but if he was doing it repeatedly and had no intention of paying anyone and using deception in order to get them to do the job then theres no doubt its a criminal matter of fraud.
