It is simply because the laws state that you are not an adult until you reach the age of 18. Until you reach 18, you can not enter into a legal and binding contract. Any time you call on the phone or get on line to order anything, you are entering in to a legal and binding contract. If by chance you are under the age of 18 and you decide not to follow through with the agreement, then there is nothing the company can do about it. They should have never sold something on line or by phone to a minor.
Therefore if you had told them that you were only 16 they would not have dealt with you at all.

Fraud but don't know the penalty, besides if you ordered something and your credit card went through it must be ok.

Guillotine is mandatory if you're over 9 yrs old, I believe.

Depending on what you purchased (like alcohol) you could be charged in underage purchasing.

If it's not your credit card, then it's theft.
