Legal Question in Bankruptcy in Virginia

Intent to defraud?

If a VA corporation (your employer) asks you to put company expenses on your personal credit card knowing they were going to fire you and bankrupt both your payroll and said expenses with days, are they liable for fraud?

In addition, if they did bankrupt the furloughed employees' pay and expenses, then proceeded to bonus their executives well above the cap allowed by the bankruptcy court, is this fraud as well?
