If the hacker had not said the bit about donating to Ukraine, but instead just made the proposal "send me all the money" would he have committed any crime? It's not clear to me that, apart from lying, he really did anything you're not supposed to do.

If, analogously, my bank had a program where people could propose actions to the bank and vote on them by putting dollars in a "yes" or "No" jar - and I started a "give me the bank" proposal, took out a massive loan and won the vote... What have I done wrong?
