I don't believe it's wire fraud unless you deceive the other party for monetary gain. I realize that's not quite the correct definition but AFAIK it's quite close to it.

The gain is that you get to access the website. Fraud simply requires gain, not necessarily monetary benefit.
That's not it. There is 2 parts 2 fraud.
Part 1: misrepresentation of fact
Part 2: harm or loss due to that misrepresentation
You must prove both.

And for something like this it has to be reasonable for them to rely on the misrepresentation, to which I would say definitely not.
